Thanks for the helpful suggestions so far.  I am going to try and heat it up
with a propane torch and see if that helps first.  Regarding the questions
on the differences in intake openings between an early and late head, I am
using an early intake, early gasket, and my late model exhaust manifold. I
found out and tested that the late model exhaust manifold lines up exactly
to the early head.
Thanks
Jim Henningsen

   If you have an impact gun you might try that, and a pair of gloves to
hold the pulley. I'm not sure if it will work, but it's worth a shot.
    One note on your '69 it will have the narrow spacing on the ports of the
intake and your 75 will have wider intake ports.

    Hello listers,
    I am getting ready for my engine and tranny swap (can't wait for the
    overdrive!) and need some of the lists expertise.  I have a 1969 early
TR6
    engine that I am putting in my 75 TR6.  It has the 3/8" pulleys all
around
    and I will be installing my 75 alternator (1/2" pulley).  I have a spare
69
    "dead" alternator with a 3/8" pulley and wish to switch the pulley to my
75
    alternator. I can't seem to get the pully nut free on the 69 alternator.
I
    have tried WD40 but I can't seem to get leverage since the shaft moves
in
    order to get the nut loosened.  Any ideas????
    Thanks in advance!
