Crank Pulley installation tool Has any one used the pullley installation tool set that is sold by JW Whitney? It is about $25, I think.
It comes in a small plastic black box and has about 10 differnet size threaded rods that can be inserted into the master threaded rod that is used to drive the old pulley back on to the crankshaft with a big "nut". It claims to work on all foreign and domestic crankshaft pulleys that are "pressed" on.
I matched the threads in the kit to an old LS1 crankshaft bolt and it matches perfectly.
Therefore, this should work; right?
Anyone have experience using this set on LS1/6s?

I looked at that tool and almost bought it, but after reading around i just decided to go to AutoZone and borrow there puller. I was changing to the ASP pulley and i wouldnt need that tool again, so it wasnt worth it for a 10 minute job.
