Pulley Problems

So, i went to change 3.0 gm stag 2 pulley to the nates 2.9 and i couldnt get the screws loose...Lock Tight, so now what do I do???

BTW, nates pulley looks amazing and is really light. Awesome Product!!!

I a pretty sure the bond by lock tight can be broken by pressure or heat, but not sire what I should do...Anybody run into the same problem..??? HELP

Any ideas cause I wanna get my nates pulley on tonight....lol

have had the prob but use to work ina machine shop
be very carefull not to snap them

prob heat the bolts very little heat at a time if the pully is aluminum bad warp and heat is also what activates the locktite so once you heat them that may be one of your last chances

so once I heat the screws the locktight activates and I will never be able to get it off....??? then what...

The screws are still intact and there aren't stripped, they just dont loosen. When I do try to turn them the belt and pulley just turn with it. I am gonna take it to the dealer and tell them I am gonna put in a slightly larger pulley and give them my 2.9 and the smoothflow scews...and if they don't buy it then, I guess out comes the torch....
