- Further more by installing the lighter aluminum pulley, keep in mind that aluminum is softer then harden steel (crankshaft) you are also taking a chance of either killing your crankshaft or being unable to ever remove the underdrive pulley since with time it will weld it self to the crank. and here is exactly what happened in this case, So we had to remove the whole front end, radiator support, a/c condenser so we can put a big enough air gun to brake loos the bolt and still had hell of time to do so .

Also I'm quoting the same info from the web




















please watch this videos
