Smile Re: Problems aligning power steering pump with crank

Another thought: there is made a crankshaft pulley-set where the outer pulley(for the ps)fits so closely up-inside the middle pulley(for ac?)that there is almost NO space between them: maybe the thickness of a quarter at most. These 2 pulleys I speak of are made more like 2 "hugging" sheet metal pulleys rather than made of the separated, heavier cast steel(iron?) pulleys you have. Some of these pairs are spot-welded together/inseparable, while other sets will separate with a bit of effort--never seen a need to do this, though.

Look for that set & maybe it will solve your problems. Should I find a pic of a such a set, I will return and attach it.
