Re:ls crank pully
get a half inch braker bar, go to home depot and buy a 3 inch steel bar, like for fencing you can get like a 4-5 foot section slide it over the breaker bar. loke the flywheel up using a wedge of some kinda and bam you eithe rbreak the bolt or get it off. I had access to a 7 foot TQ wrench capable of thousands of pounds so i was lucky but this method should work too

Re:ls crank pully
julio taught me this last week. we removed 2 crank pulleys this way. remove the starter and use something to get stuck in the flywheel teeth. (we used a small bracket that connects to the driver's side mount)
use a breaker bar with a pipe to extend it for more leverage.
worked like a charm.
good luck.

isn't it easier to remove the flywheel inspection plate for that?

two bolts compared to four.
jacking up the car to get under it.
(in the case of the Z6, you have to remove the tranny supports also.)
the starter is easy and accessible IMO.

For a hardly used tool, it's a waste.
IMO free is better.
But if you must, I'm only here to help:
