Default Crankshaft Pulley Position

I am ready to pull the crankshaft pulley so I can move ahead with my heads / cam project but my Helms manual does not indicate there is a keeper pin or a specific position for the balancer / pulley to be placed back onto the crankshaft other than all the way on.

So, before I pull the pulley off is there a specific position to ensure the balance is right or do you just pull the pulley back on and torque it up?

Thanks for your time.

No specific position the pulley should go on. Just seat it and torque the bolt down.

The service manual is very specific on this, scribe the pulley and the crank snout prior to removal. Install in same position.

ya no need for correct balance... just anything you can get a bite on

just be careful when your torqueing it back down after install... those threads are prone to strip
