Everyone I ever did...heat balancer with a torch till you need gloves to handle.. slides on like butter no tools required..loctite on original bolt..hit it a few times with impact..never had a problem.

When you get the pully fully seated how much space is between the crank and the pully or is it flush?

[@3rdGenC10s]

I’m not sure, didn’t really look.

[@Kloco78]

That’s my question

[@MrKaaz]

What book are you using for specs?

​@@3rdGenC10syou're welcome. It came out nice. First time seeing someone painting it a different color other than orange.

@@3rdGenC10s and I was going to ask. Since I don't have a degree torque wrench finder. Can I just torque the final bolt to 257 Ft pounds (37+220 ft pnds) ?

[@tomharmon9663]

Torque angles are such a pain in the ass.

[@3rdGenC10s]

Yes they are.!
