Thanks guys for the fast responses. I had already loosened the set screw and flange nut, hosed it with PB, and awaiting responses. In the AM will block the fan and see if we get any movement. I agree it doesn't take a lot of tension to drive the fan, but I found a lot of corrosion on the crank pulley, so when I cleaned that off I built in some slop.
I was able to remove the gen belt just by wedging it under the fan belt and rotating the crank with a pipe wrench. Good tip for gen belt removal. Ran a rope around the PS pump and generator and measured that. Clear on the thermo housing, and radiator brace. Will get a belt tomorrow. Then on to cutting the shaft and install the torque gen.

Funny the things that gets by you in a restoration. Had done the radiator, and reinstallled and filled. Thermostat, water pump, all new hoses. Just removed and reinstalled the drain pipe. When I went to drain the radiator, I removed the cap from the drain pipe, nothing came out. Got a wire drill and ran it up that pipe and a fistfull of gunk came out and then the fluid gushed out. Had the tranny funnel and bucket right there though:)
