Crankshaft Pulley removal
94 Honda Accord VTEC EX, AT
Trying to remove the bolt on the crankshaft pulley. In the past on another car I've removed the starter, locked the flywheel and used a large breaker bar. I REALLY don't want to pull that starter out since I just put it in and on this car it's buried. With my Craftsman impact wrench and propane torch it didn't budge. How much torque does the impact wrench need to have? I'm guessing mine is probably a cheaper 400lb job. Or any other recommendations?

my 550ft/lb impact wrench hasn't been able to get some off.
I resolved this by getting a breaker bar with a 10 foot pipe on it. That pipe is the best investment I have ever made lol. Saved a lot of bloody knuckles and aggravation.
But even with the pipe there were a few crank pulley bolts where I had to jump on the pipe to break it free.
