Default Crankshaft pulley differences LS1 and LS2

I am swapping in an LS2 from a Corvette, the Crankshaft pulley looks different on the LS1 Camaro vs LS2 Corvette.
When looking down at the Corvette pulley, it looks about 1/4" wider when looking down at it vs the Camaro's.

Can use the LS2 from the Vette or do I need to take the Camaro's?

The Vette accessories are closer to the block than the ones in an F-body. You will need to change the pulley for the belt to line up with the accessories you are using.

Can I use an impact gun on a 3 prong puller to remove the pulley as the motor is out of the car making it hard to keep from turning.

yes you can.
However be careful of damaging the threads on the end of the crankshaft. Some type of spacer should be used to protect the end of the crank from the puller screw.
