One last question, when I take the pulley off, is the timing belt going to come undone? I need to remove the timing belt cover to exchange a motor mount so I can get this damn engine in. I really didn't want to mess with the timing.
make sure its at top dead center and the beginning of the intake stroke on cylinder 1.
that way you wont have to mess with the timing.
once you get the bolt off, the timing belt shouldnt come off on its own, the belt tensioner will still have tension on it.
a big impact gun will help here. or there are honda specific pulley bolt tools also.
