yes i understand the fit. I did not put this one on. I just have to get it off. the bolts were what came with the puller and I believe it was a grade 5. I thought about going and getting 3 grade 8 bolts but didn't. now I have to deal with what I have. I am thinking I can possibly get the cover off enough to take timing chain off and remove crank and use press to get this thing off. will deff. remove outer hub of balancer. is there something I am overlooking or is this a feasible method?

No problem and it is good that ATI shows that spec sheet on balancer to crank fit specs.

For years and years we just put them on and never measured anything. Had many instances like Keith is having.

I can tell you for sure that press fit when too much can be a disaster..

I pressed many pistons on rods as we did not use heat. If you went beyond about .001 press on a steel rod with a cast piston you were in the danger zone.....

Heating the rod is a much better way to do that operation.....
I have heated up balancers to try and make it easier.....aluminum mostly...
