Pulling Cummins 250 IP and other parts

[dk8019]

So I'm pulling the small external parts off a canned Cummins 250 I bought from GL. I was considering holding on to the whole thing, but there's no place to put it at the time, and it can't sit in the back of my M814 forever. So far I've pulled the alternator, PS pump, starter, both manifolds, and I'm working on the IP. I've pulled on the bolts from it, and I'm guessing I need to remove the main bolt on the pulley as well, but the bolt won't budge, even using my impact wrench, so I'm guessing there's some trick to removing it. Any clues?

2nd, what other parts should I remove from the block before I scrap it? I was considering pulling the oil pump as well, perhaps the water pump as well, I just don't want to miss anything before it goes away.

All and all I wish I could hold on to it. I pulled the oil filter and the oil looks quite nice, so I'm still at a loss for why it was swapped in the first place by the military.

That is a shame to scrap. I think the pump has 4 bolts and it pops off. It has ben a while since i pulled it off. I wonder if that engine is good? might find a home up here?

I agree, I don't want to scrap it, but it's got to go soon. A few have PM'd me all I want for the block is jsut scrap value I suppose, can't be more than $100 or so.
