There's a tool on Amazon you can buy for 30$ that will let you take the pulley bolt off with no problems. ; )

Save yourself the headache and just buy it...

Link to tool? Imma order the cp and id like to get this too

On my fone so I dunno how to link lol. Just goto Amazon and search for "Honda crank pulley tool". There aren't many returns and its pretty easy to spot.

Here it is...

You fit 1/2" breaker bar in the square on the end of the tool handle. You can also use half of a floor jack handle over the end of the tool. Wedge that against the floor if you are on jackstands... and bow up on the CP bolt to get her loose. The crank wont turn, and it makes life much easier.

You also use this to TQ the CP bolt when you reinstall.

well got around to finally install the sc this past weekend and tomorrow im gonna get the cp installed and a tune but will the gates k080615 belt fit fine with cutting one rib off??? right now with just the 3.8 pulley and auto tensioner im running the k070622 and the belt is pretty tight almost no play but i wonder if with the smaller cp will it still fit or should i get a smaller belt...

The k24 cp is significantly larger, not smaller!

The k080615 is shorter, thus making it possibly too short to use for the larger k24 cp. You can most likely use the Gates/Goodyear k070622 or as neoamd suggests, the Gates/Goodyear k080620 with a rib cut off for some extra snugness. I'm using the k070622 with 3.8" SC pulley & auto tensioner. I'd suggest putting the belt on all of the pulleys and leaving the S/C pulley for last. I needed an extra hand to hold the wrench while I forced the belt over the S/C pulley.

Thats the thing... im running the gates k070622 like u suggested but without the k24 cp, its fairly snug so i wonder if it will still fit... im just gonna buy a belt both slightly bigger and smaller just in case....
