do yourself a favor and buy a longer bolt to draw it on or get a 6" long piece of all-thread and appropriate nut and a couple washers, you will save yourself a lot of frustration.

thanks for all the help. i finally man uped and bought a big boy impact gun, 500 lbs of torque was all it took to break it free. thanks again for all the input. i post a video when its all done
I was going to say call a fat friend to jump on the breaker bar![]()
i was gonna ask what size impact you were using lol!! good to know you got it off without further or any damage!!!
when you slide it back on or install a new one clean the crank shaft and the pulley with some really fine grit steele whool or something, then take some never seize and put it on the shaft and in the pulley, then whipe it lightly off, just leaving a film on it.. make sure the pulley is straight when going back on and run it up with a impact. !!! good luck hope all goes well for ya .
Simple: 408 on steroids!
single digits coming soon!
Take a punch, put it on the head of the bolt, wack the piss out of it a few times. Then take heat the bolt up some( NOT GLOWING RED) Now put your breaker bar on it, along with a 3ft cheater bar, it will come right out..![]()

Putting the pully back on is the easy part, if you get a bolt from a z06 there about an inch longer.
I used an impact rated at 900 lbs of torque to remove and instal crank bolts. To reinstal, put the pulley in a pot of boiling water for about 15 to 20 minutes. Then run outside with it while holding it with your mama's hot mits and slide under your truck and put it on the crank shaft. Then with the original crank pulley zap it on with the impact. Make sureit is fully seated. Remove old crank bolt and instal new 1. Be sure to torque it back. That is how I installed my underdrive pulley. Accept for my mom's hot mits. I used my wife's instead...lol
