Don't use the original bolt to install the new pulley. It will only thread in a couple turns and you'll risk stripping out the end of the crank. If there's a Fastenall or similar hardware store in your area they might carry one that fits. If not MacMaster-Carr has them for cheap.

I just did my cam and head swap tried using the old bolt to install the pulley and bad idea. I ended up almost striping out the threads...
So i borrowerd my neighbors Ls style crank pulley install tool. So either get a longer bolt to pull it on or go rent the tool or purchase one. I almost havd a huge issue on my hands. Get the tool or longer bolt!!!

Definately order a tool for the job, I removed my balancer once and tried to pull it on with a Longer ARP bolt, well lets just say that didnt go to well, it ended up breaking the bolt inside the crankshaft and I had to tap the end of the snout on the crankshaft.
