Yeah, exactly what fasteddy said. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> On the crank sprocket, I ended up drilling 2 holes 180 apart & bottom-tapping them for 1/4-20 bolts, then used a puller to get it off once. Even then, it wasn't easy...and is NOT recommended to re-use the drilled sprocket.

I had to remove the crank sprocket to replace the seals & gaskets when replacing my engine (replacement engine was from a 94 3000GT). Odd thing was, with the 3000GT engine, the crank sprocket slid off by hand (undamaged, thank goodness).

I used to buy anti-seize by the blister-pack tube some time ago. NOW I buy it by the bottle, with the brush in the cap. And it has saved the day for me quite a few times already...sage advice. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Of course it was a bit easier with the engine out of the vehicle, ouch... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" /> Good Luck.
