> Stoney mentioned a technique someone else mentioned involving using the >starter to get the pully bolts off. Anyone?

Put the correct size socket on a long 1/2" breaker bar. Disconnect coil wire and ground it. Fit socket to bolt head and rotate the breaker bar into a position against the inner fender on the driver's side. Make sure you have disconnected the coil wire and grounded it ! Turn the ignition to the on position. Give a quick "bump" to the starter. Bolt should be loose enough to continue removing it with the socket and a ratchet.
