I found myself upset years ago that my crank pulley had no timing marks that I could see. I set the timing by vacuum and it has run fine. That has always bugged me so a while ago I bought a new pulley with marks. I now want to change it out and have two questions. First off; can the pulley only be bolted on in one way, meaning oddly spaced holes? Or do I have to fit the #6 piston stop for TDC?
Also has anyone changed out the pulley without pulling the radiator and backing out the bolts through the radiator hole with a universal socket?
I have a show on the 15th of June so this is my window to complete this.
Thanks much, Wayne

Re: Crank Pulley questions???
Hi Wayne,
The pulley has odd spaced holes and only bolts up one way. The bolts are only about a 1/2" long and can be removed with the radiator in place; from the top.

Re: Crank Pulley questions???
Thanks Bert I was hoping for that info. That's the next task as I took the red prime pulley and sprayed yellow over the timing ticks, wiped the yellow off to put it only on the lines. Next I taped off the marks and sprayed the pulley OD. Finally the timing mark area got sprayed with a clear coat. The next owner after I'm ashes should be happy
