Quick question:
Is the outside edge of the center hole in the pulley supposed to be perfectly flush with crankshaft before I put the bolt in?

Mine's about 1/8" out and doesn't want to go any further.

Thanks.

That's good, it bottoms against the cam gear and slinger, a gap is normal, no gap would be bad.

Sounds about right. I don't know the distance, but it's not flush.

Cool. That's what I wanted to hear.

If it was flush or further in the bolt wouldn't tighten against it.
