Great news James, and Kev the method I have used on pulleys (used on a Rootes 1600) was socket on bolt, bar on chassis and use starter motor

I tried this yesterday. Bar went "clunk". One dent in my garage floor, but bolt still stuck fast.  >:(

Kevin

You wont shift that bolt without a 3 foot bar and the crank locked, there dam tight but then they need to be.....have you tried warming up the pulley assembly and then tapping it at 12, 6, 9 and 3 Oclock positions in order to get it off the cam belt sprocket.
LOL - I recall ;)

Well, gave it one last squirt of plus gas and one more heave with the 6' breaker bar extension and BANG!

Has something broken? No, bolt has finally yielded!

So game on, James. Garage will be all yours come the weekend!
