Re: A '54 named Busty

so this is embarrasing but although I have built a small block Chevy or two in my lifetime I did not realize there is a special tool to put on the harmonic balancer, now I knew there is a tool aka a pulley to take one off but not to put one on

so this is how I stripped the harmonic balancer 7/16-20 fine thread bolt, the darn starter got stuck in the flex plate and as I was tightening down the harmonic balancer I thought the engine would eventually turn over and nothing bad would happen to that bolt
