I've been driving my 83 with one broken pulley bolt for at least 25,000 miles with no problems. The next time I change the timing belt, I'll remove the complete crank pulley and drill out the broken bolt with a left hand drill bit. Should be easy to do on the bench. In case you don't know, it works better if you turn the crank shaft 180 degrees at least 4-5 times while tighten the pulley bolts and nuts. Use a racket with a 7/8"(?) socket to turn the crank. jp
