Hey Hugh, glad to hear that you have gotten that lower pulley installed. Sometime they can be a bear!! I am like you, don't like using too much heat or WILL NOT beat on anything going on the end of a crankshaft. If you think about it, there is only on thrust bearing and everytime ya hit something like that pulley, you are just jamming the crank right back into the thrust bearing and damaging it.
