I won't be removing it myself. After we gave up on the crank pulley we moved on to the exhaust came to replace the TDC sensor. After a lot of cursing and a few more beers we got that taking care of. While tq'ing down one of the cam girdle's my friend snapped one of the bolts. I'm towing the car to a shop to get it removed and finish the rest of the Kpro install.
'Metcalfe' from our local Tampa forum removed it at his shop. I'll send him this link to have him chime in on just how retarded it was to get off.

I removed the crank pulley for Spectacle yesterday and finished up the install for him... He wasn't kidding around when he said it was tight. I used the same method he did with a breaker bar and after 30 secs of pulling/pushing it let out a loud crack and broke loose. Glad I could help out...

haha to this day i only have one gun that will take off most crank pully bolts on hondas, integra's dont count.
most of the time i use the crank tool and wedge it against the frame and use my 3' long 1/2 breaker. works everytime.
but pulling defintately helps better than pushing.
if you WERE to heat it, DONT heat the bolt as said before
pb blaster ftmfw.'
also you have that cheater pipe but how long is the ratchet/breaker bar thats actually snapped into the socket>?
