For whatever reason I could raise the engine a couple of inches and roll if left or right within the frame. But I could not slide or tilt it forward. It felt as if it was teatherd by the drive shaft.
Unbolting the pulley did the trick, allowing me to tilt the motor and slide the new belt in.
There was a slight cam out on the hub, but not enough to allow the rollpin to get hung up. In any case it's all back together now and it spent the last two days moving dirt!
Thanks 123 for your assistance!
