You will need a heavy duty three jaw puller. I STRONGLY recommend using a torch or heat gun and heat the hub of the old and new pully to approx 150 - 200 deg. This will make the removal and install a WHOLE LOT easier.
You will also need something to hold the damper AND an Install tool to seat the damper on the crank snout. DO NOT use the old bolt to start the damper on the snout.
heres is what I made:
I hacked the head off an old bolt and welded the threads to some standard all thread.
The strap wrench will hold the damper so that you can tighten the bolt.
I used an ARP damper bolt vise the OEM Bolt. MUCH BETTER!
MAKE sure that you install a new cover seal.
