ls2 waterpump pulley removal
I am attempting to install a ls2 waterpump on my f-body ls1. The only problem I see is the pulley needs to be shimmed out about 3/8". I am just wondering what it takes to remove the pulley from the pump. Ive got a 3 arm puller on it right now with no luck. Any recomendations for me?
thanks

I used a hacksaw to get mine off but, of course, I destroyed it. I couldn't figure out how to get that puppy off or even move it. I guess I'd try to weld a machined piece on to it that a puller would grip although you might distort it. The LS2/7 pump does give you more clearance in front of the engine. I ended up using a Meziere remote water pump which has worked really well so far, i.e. 6 months and 3000 miles of daily driving.

I tried everything I could think of to move the waterpump pulley on an LS1 pump with no success. If you heat it you'll undoubtely fry the seal.
I used a remote mounted Meziere electric pump for my '88 BMW M3/LS6 daily driver and it has worked flawlessly for three years now. This option gives you lots of room.
