Question PUMP TIMING

I have read most of the post here and feel like tackling my timing on my p7100 However my most feared questions is what is the best way to hold my crank from turning while I undo the 30MM pump nut the is torqued to 150 Foot pounds on my injection pump?
So far no one really gives many details about this and I can only image how hard it is to get that off and back on to torque...
Any one

Default Serious?

I don't understand I can turn my motor over with the alternator nut So how can it be that the crank won't turn over when I try to undo a 150 lb ft nut. Are you saying that the tool in the bell housing is enough to hold that?

We stuck a big screwdriver in the hole and held it against a torque convertor bolt to break the nut loose. If you have a barring tool for the bell housing it can be held with that.
