I used a two-arm puller with ease many times. Loosen the main bot but leave it in the cran. Using two hex bolts to thread into the provided holes in the pulley.
Of course what makes it super easy it that, after putting a floor jack under th engine, you lower the back of the power train (and rear shroud) to gain access from rear for your wrenching.
Gppd luck, should take twenty minutes. be sure and get a nice rebuilt (Clarks), worht every penny.

You can use a steering wheel puller. Russ Davis makes a compact
balancer puller that doesn't require lowering the engine, I think
Clark's carries them now. Works really slick. BTW, all Corvair
engines are 6 cyl.
