The ASP pulley isn't spinning. You are turning the crankshaft over when trying to tighten the bolt down.
You need to either purchase a flywheel lock from Kent-Moore or remove the starter and wedge a big-screwdriver in there to keep the flexplate from moving.

Also, make sure you use a new crank bolt for the final torque sequence. Use the old bolt to pre-seat the pulley then use the new bolt to keep it on.

well i'm actually putting the pulley back on. its on well over 150lbs right now. i can tell cause that's what my torque wrench goes up too. i don't think an impact wrench would work. the whole crank would just start spinning. i need to find a way to keep the crank from turning over. i think i'm just gonna drive it to the shop like this and hope the belt doesn't fall off. its on there pretty good. i just need it to go on about a 1/4 inch more and it should be good. thanks for the help though guys.
