ok so i started my swap and pulled the engine from my cx, i was planning on changing the water pump and timing belt on my new z6, but i cant pulleys off because the bolt wont loosen, i tried sticking a screwdriver in the fly wheel and using a breaker bar, heating it and soaking it down with bolt breaker stuff, and i tried using and impact wrench at 120 psi but no luck. what do i do now? i need to get this engine in?

what did you use to heat it? i had problems getting bolts out on my swap.. i torched it and then let it soak in wd-40 overnight.. worked for me

this thread shows multiple ways to get the crank pulley off. i wouldn't advise a torch close to the crank seal.
