The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Big Bolts Just how much twisting will a 292 crankshaft bolt take?

You can remove the starter and then you can get to the ring gear. Then you can take a bar and put it between the teeth on the ring gear, you may need a block of wood to get the right angle to get some leverage to try and turn it. Using the bolt in the end of the crank is not going to work, and it will twist off if you put to much pressure on it.
