I guess I have to get a bigger wrench. What's the dampner? The pulley on the front bottom of the motor? I hope so. Thanks

Thanks. Where is a good place to keep the motor from turning so I can tighten it?

I tried the flywheel and when you are all alone attempting 212 and the wedge keeps falling out you get PMTFO real quick like.Ended up talking it to the shop and that is how they did it pipe wrench.

I used a wedge on the flywheel with a floor jack to hold it in place. It made tightening and loosening the bolt a piece of cake.

I didn't say hammer on it till you crack the oil pump :pointlaugh: drive just kinda give it a few quick blasts. Also does anyone else put a dab of "grey death" on the keyway slop so as to prevent alittle leak? :D

Thanks guys. I ended up using a wood block. I did not torque it to exact specs because my torque wrench only went to 150. But I kept turning it after it hit 150. Should be close to 200 till I get an impact on it.

Should be OK. When you get up there in torque, it just means tighter-n-h*ll. JMHO
