Should be, my experience with asp udp has an aluminum center took 220 degrees but the steel center pulleys around 8 mins or more of heating my temp gun said 340 degrees it finally slipped on far enough to threads with stock length bolt

Geez guys! They make a tool for a reason....Thats why people are boogering up threads, stripping cranks, and melting oil seals...Get the tool, the pulley goes on easy. There should be reason to use a cheater bar. All I used was a wrench!

I got my cam in and everything. Torqued all the rockers down to 22 ft lbs with about 1.5 turns on each one. NOW my problem is the u/d pulley. It was HARD to go on. I don't remember it ever being this hard. I mean the first half way of getting it on wasn't to bad, but now I'm using a 3 foot cheater pipe and putting full force on it and still haven't got it seated all the way. Wich brings me to my next question on how to know how far back to go. I put the belt on to see how much further it needs to go, but it's pretty tuff to see.
