Does anyone have a link to this thread? Thanks.

That will work, get a section of pipe cut at home depot to go over your torque wrench for the leverage to get the torque needed for the OEM/ARP bolt specs.

You will want to use 4th gear.

you can also remove the starter and use a flywheel holding tool. This isn't necessary as stated above in Ted's post. Placing the car in 4th gear works fine, and I personally have done this.

LOL wrong thread I thought we were talking about dyno gear.

You will need to hold the flywheel with a pry bar or remove the starter and install a flywheel locking tool.

Another install tip is to take a picture of the supercharger belt routing. I didn't and wasted a few hours trying to route the belt incorrectly, buying belts and in the end the original 67" belt I bought was correct. I am by no means a noob and totally screwed this up. I felt like a jacknut once I figured it out.
