My new supercharger build!!

Well guys and gals,
I finally started on my Kraftwerks build. I tore everything down tonight and the kit will be here tomorrow (missed the delivery today). I am putting demon eyes and angel eyes in along with the fogs.
The only thing holding me back is the harmonic balancer. I don't know if I'm just tired, but I can't get that damn thing off!!! Any and ALL advice welcome.
I will try to take some photos along the way and post them. But, I am real excited about this build. I just wish I had the cash to tear apart the upper end while I'm in there, but...... :(

Ok. I tried the method of cranking the engine (just a bump at a time). Didn't help. Actually has me worried, because now the engine won't turn over. Unplugging the battery for the night to reset computer.

Might be a silly question but are you using a harmonic balancer puller to remove it? If I'm remembering my battles with them, I usually had to use sockets as spacers to get them to work correctly. That was when I was using the ones you rent from autozone, etc.

I finally bought my own kit and it works well.

I wedged a Small pull bar inside of the pulley to bind it so it wouldn't roll, probably a better method but I got tired of messsing with it myself

If leverage is the issue get a pole and put over the ratchet handle

Leverage isn't the issue. Pulley just spins...

Does any one know of a link or picture of how to get the crank pulley bolt off. I have tried wedging a bar in there and cranking if with no success...
