Can anyone describe to me what it looks like, and or is there any suitable substitute for. Or can you hoist from 3 bolt holes on the flywheel?

I use a harmonic balance puller to pull flywheels. What I did was replace the center "puller" bolt with a bolt with two large flat washers welded on edge to the head of the bolt to make a lifting eye. Screw this into the puller in place of the "puller" bolt and hoist the powerhead or engine with it. I do snug the bolt down onto the end of the crankshaft but not enough to damage it. <br /><br />c/6<br /><br />Hooty
