Use an air gun. It's the only other way to remove the bolt without a special tool.

That's the beauty of an air tool, it activates so quickly that rotation problems aren't usually an issue. Is the crank out of the car or something? Either way sounds like you need to turn up the air pressure or use a higher torque impact gun to remove the bolt.

if the motor is still on the car then stick a screwdriver in the teeth of the flywheel and it should jam the crank in place once it hits the block. use a breakabar in this case. if the block is out and the crank has the main caps on then stick an extension between the counterweights and the block and use a airtools..

I could never get my bolt out with my 3/8 inch drive impact. The 1/2 inch drive does the trick for me.

about 2 feet of nylon rope into the #1 cylinder will do the trick...
