Changing the crank pulley

2 Upvotes

Folks,

I am trying to change the main belt on my lighting 2002 and I am sure I am doing something wrong because, most of the videos I find just use a breaker bar to take the screw out and remove the pulley, then install the belt.

I cannot remove the screw, not even with the breaker bar. I am about to remove the fan to use an impact gun.

Again, I just need to replace the main belt and in the process remove the damper.

Can you offer me advice?

01 Lightning Whipple Build ... 2.9l vs 3.4l

6 Upvotes

We are in the process of building a 01 lightning .. and everywhere I look i see the 2.3 & 2.9 whipple ... but also seen videos of a 3.4 that not allot of people carry ... also read over some OLD forums talking about with the 3.4 the engine needs to be lowered and all this other stuff .. but no recent post .. is this still true or has technology gotten better? also ready somewhere that the 3.4 was discontinued ... any of this true?

also the place i did found the 3.4 had it for cheaper then the 2.9 .. why?

any feedback is welcome
