Question about pullies I bought an asp 25% underdrive pulley and it looks like the pulley is also the balancer? Sorry for the stupid questions but the only other car I've worked on is a big block chevelle and the pulley bolts onto the balancer of a bbc. I have the tools to remove and install a balancer so I'm sure I can get this one on but I also noticed that the asp pulley doesn't have a key way, so how does it turn with the crankshaft?

OK, thanks for the answers. I'm amazed there is no key way, you would think under hard acceleration the crankshaft would spin without the pulley spinning, must be pressed on pretty damn tight. Thanks again.

Haha, it is on there REALLY tight. You'll need a breaker bar w/ pipe or impact gun to get the old bolt out. Also, you can't reuse the stock bolt - a new one from GM is cheap. ARP has a replacement for around 20 bucks that you can reuse too.
