R50/53 Anyone have success cutting sc pulley off?
Aside from that everything has been great.
Air Body Saw Worked Great
Thanks to BlwnAway, I successfully used an air body saw to cut down the pulley to within a spark plug gap's width of the shaft and broke it off with a medium strength strike with a dead-blow hammer on a chisel. Cutting oil kept the blade moving smoothly (so it would not grab and possbly jump forward to ding the seal) and allowed me to get both cuts done using a single blade. At the end, I shut down the air compressor and let the saw slow down as I made alternating cuts on either side very near the shaft.
