Thanks paul, one question however.  The picture shows the angle coming off
the right side of the engine (assuming it is mounted for aircraft use.  I
presume it is set up that way so you can get the flywheel nut off as the
socket on the wrench is too large got the pully socket.
If this is the setup for the pully bolt on the other end then that would
indicate that the pully bolt is a left hand thread?  Is this correct as I
believed it to be a right-hand thread.
As an aside, the 'mechanic' who had re-built this engine had tightened the
flywheel up with a cold chisel!

Have some one stand on it. I think it comes off counter clock wise
looking at the front of the engine. Yes I have seen then done
by crude 'mechanics'. Can't really call them real mechanics can we?
