Do you have the harmonic damper off yet? If not, you'll need to use a steering wheel puller to get it off because it's a press fit on the crank.
Remove the large bolt that holds the damper secure to the crank. If the bolt is really tight, you may have to have a buddy slide under the car, remove the sheet metal inspection plate at the bottom of the bellhousing and hold a large flat blade screw into the ring gear teeth and wedge it against the block to keep the crank from turning. Turn the large screw on the steering wheel puller all the way out until just the pointed spinner is showing on one side and all the threads and the hex portion of the screw are on the other side. Choose 3 bolts that will thread into the 3 holes in the damper and have enough thread to engage (at least 4 full threads). Find a bolt that is small enough and long enough to stick back into the crank hole so it will be a little shorter than the hole and loose in the hole. This will be the bolt head that your puller screw will push on. Put the 3 bolts through the puller and bolt it to the damper, pulling the puller snug against the damper face. Your pointer end of the puller screw will now push against the bolt in the crank and prevent any damage to the end of the crank. Turn the puller screw and the damper will be pulled slowly off the crank. Everything else behind the timing cover will unbolt and pull out.PLANET EARTH, INSANE ASYLUM FOR THE UNIVERSE.
