I had no problem taking the flywheel off when I got the engine back from Steve, using the flywheel lock. When I took the "short block" to have it torn down, the mechanic simply held the flywheel with his hand, and took off the nut with an air wrench hammer thingy. I think Mark called it a "stutter gun" or something like that. It was torqued to over 217 # and put on with loktite. It came off with no problem.
