Im going to be installing my blower over winter, so my Steeda UDPs need to come off. How do I re-install the original crank pulley? Do I need to use a starter bolt like I did for the UDPs?

Also what size is the stock crank bolt? Im going to put a new one in since I reused the oem one with the UDPs.

Go to Ford and get a new crank pulley bolt. It's a torque to yield bolt. If you need the torque specs on it let me know.

I've been told the crank bolt can be reused several times.

And when I reinstalled mine when I did my cam install, I just tapped in on just a bit with a rubber hammer. If the shaft is clean, it should slide on pretty easily. And it only has to go a little bit before the bolt will reach.

I would not re-use a TTY bolt especially one that is in a critical area and has such a high tq value. Honestly if you can wait a week or so I would order an ARP damper bolt from summit. They cost more then OEM Ford but you can re-use them time and time again.

Sounds good to me. Only need to get it on there far enough for the bolt to do the rest of the work.
