Default Pulley installer/ puller for our lt1 ?

This is my first post. I thought i'd make it in the lt1 section since that's what i have. Aw yeah! I do have a question though. I need a puller/ installer to get my crank pulley off so i can replace my opti. I was wondering if one of you guys could give me a part # or tell me of one that will work for an lt1. I went to the autoparts store bc i was told they have one to rent but it didn't have the proper bolt/thread size so i thought i'd ask in here so I don't order the wrong one.

A decent 3 jaw puller is all you need to remove it (some pulleys come off without a puller). Nothing needed for install.

Thanks shbox. I have a 3 jaw puller but i didn't think to try putting it on the inside like that. The picture helped.

Once you take it off, sand the inside of the hub to make reinstallation/re-removal easier.
