Using the pressure-plate, threaded bolt-hole, in the flywheel (1 of 6) insert a longer bolt through a home made sleeve into the hole nearest the top of the driver side bell housing (above it) and tighten using most of the flywheel threads. (The sleeve will help prevent the bolt from bending when torque is applied to the HB crank bolt) Place a thick, strong, prybar, horizontaly across both sides of the bell housing under the bolt sleeve. (You can also place a flatbar on top of the bell housing under the prybar to disipate pressure on the bell housing) With a 1/2" breaker-bar and six-point socket and a long, 3 or 4ft cheater pipe over the breaker-bar, pull towards the driver side fender. This has always worked for me. Or you can drill a hole in the fire wall (under the driver side rug) that lines up with the big crank bolt and using the socket,an extension,and a big air impact gun and a lot of PSI that bolt will come out! No need to mess with the clutch at all.
