Message well, more like I'm glad the engine is not IN the car while doing this because it was enough of a PITA to get that damn sprocket off. I used the trick from ttz's of dallas to get the front crankshaft seal on (over the "Step" of the crankshaft) and it went on very easily. I had to dremel the old sprocket off then use a cold chisel to split it. I had to fight it for like one to two hours and it just fought back...oh well, it's done now. (only pict I took was just the comparison of the parts/old parts..)

New woodruff keys make things much easier too ;)

Anyway, thought I'd share.
