I was lucky only the pulley was stripped ( like 3/4 of the key), the 
crankshaft was in perfect condition. I even though the crank was bent and was 
causing the pulleys to wobble (sp?). BTW as soon as I get my front rubber 
mount rebuilt I'll send you the hydraulic one that I'm using. I was also 
thinking that if, as I read on the 1.8T swap posts, the new 1.8t engine is a 
straight swap using the stock motor mounts, can't we use the new motor mounts 
from those cars (either new audi's or golf's, etc)??? Anybody knows???

As for the JB Weld stuff, not sound stubborn but if a factory hard steel 
crankshaft gets stripped (pulley also), don't you guys think it's way easier 
for it to happen with JB weld?? Just another thought.
