I have not had trouble installing the pulley/harmonic damper on a 4 cylinder.
It is a moderate push on fit. No wailing needed. if it is harder going on check
for damage on the crank surface and dress it back down to the surface using
emery cloth.

Subject: [Healeys] !00-4 main bearing cap puller / damper install
Hi everyone,
Thanks to those who helped me with my puller question. In the
end I made a new tool out of angle iron and 3/8 -16 rod. I ran a BSW 3/8 -16
die on the end to match the bearing caps. It worked the treat and the caps came
out with the minor expected effort. The engine is apart and going to the
machine shop soon. The owner and I plan to install a pro- harmonic damper when
building up the motor. Unless the Denis Welch steel crank has internal threads
how have people installed the new damper on the crank. Searching videos I see
people wailing on the damper with hammers to force it onto the crank nose. This
cannot be good for the thrust washers and not how I plan to install it:(
Regards
Wayne
