Pulling the hub?
Well I have removed my harmonic balancer and am now working on the hub. I have secured a puller onto it and gave it a good work over. So far all that has happened is that I have bent my harmonic balancer puller. Any sugestions would be good. I am calling it quits for the night since I am not in the mood and don't want to come up with a method that might cause a problem. Thanks in advance.

As far as I am concerned, there is only one tool the pull or install the LT1/LT4 damper hub -- the Kent Moore tool designed for this purpose.
I've read posts where other pullers have been used successfully, but I won't take the chance.
If you are interested in the Kent Moore tool, do a search on "Kent Moore" for the info on how to buy it.

From my article on another Forum...Here's what the puller looks like when removing the hub:
Here's what the installer looks like:
