Thank you I appreciate that. I am proud and very excited. I have came a long way and im getting so close I can feel it. Where would the best place be to brace it under the crankshaft pulley?
If you have a piece of plywood, maybe 8 or 10 inches wide and 12 to 18 inches long, and a 2 x 4 a few feet long....it would be easy to rig up a prop. Take your pulley off of the harmonic balancer, and lay it bolt holes down on the plywood kinda close to the end of the narrow side. Trace 4 bolt holes 90 degrees apart, and also the balancer bolt hole. Drill out the bolt holes you marked, and use a hole saw big enough to open a hole for the balancer bolt and washer to fit thru. Get 4 bolts long enough to go thru the plywood and snug it up against the balancer. Put the 2 x 4 between the leg on the engine stand and the plywood, and screw them together. If the 2 x 4 had a little upward pressure, it might help....but may not be really necessary. Just another one of my :realcrazy: ideas....lol.
