Ok so I got my underdrive pully on, works great. It is a BBK, now my altenator is not keeping the bat. charged up enough to start the car, help? I have read that unless you have a system in the car you want need the pully for the altenator. Can I get a bigger altenator like a 150 amp, will that help? What do I need to do? Thanks

You have a M6 or auto? Try a 10% OVERDRIVE alternator pulley to compensate the difference

may make a tool to hold flywheel
hope the drawing of tool is understandable
use a 1/8 x 2 flat bar about 12 in long insert into flywheel threw the round hole in botton of bellhouseing ,
the notch in side will hold tool in place
PS: THE DRAWING DOES NOT SHOW UP CORRECT ,it should be about 2 in wide all the way down
WITH a small nick in the side to rest in the round hold to hold the tool in place
