Default asp pulley problem?

Here is the problem, i am finishing up my cam install, and was installing the pulley. we got the pulley down untill it was about a quarter inch from beign seated and just couldnt get it to move any more, we were bending the breaker bar we were using the tighten up the bolt. I am wondering if this is b/c of the rollmaster double roller timing chain i installed? if so is there any sure way to tell? also what should i tell the machine shop to do? thanks alot

Hey man I just went through this and I deleted the email some one sent me but look take your pulley to a machine shop ask them to mill off .115" or 3mm and put the 45 degree
back also and re install worked perfect for me and my friend.
That is the thickness of the oil pump spacer that you used with the timming chain. Good luck sorry you have to take it off again.
