Never heard of heavy duty pros rebuild kit.

It will never come off until you remove the nut that holds it on the crankshaft.
So, Heavy Duty Pros is a vendor of engine parts. The only way to find out if they sell well known brands of parts is to call them.
I would recommend you call Dale Wiess.

His prices are very competitive with other vendors.
I have purchased engine kits from him and they are high quality well know brands of parts.
The piston ring end gaps were perfect when I checked them before mounting them on the pistons.

Well I gave up trying to get that but off the crank. I used an 8ft cheater ended up breaking it. So I loaded it up took it to a welding shop gonna have him pull it off for me. I don’t know what is holding it on so tight
Hey guys well the welding shop got the nut off the crank. Reason I was having a hard time was the threads on the crank where gulled up. I’m needing to get a thread die for it. You all know what size thread tap I would need?

It would be better to let the welding shop repair it if they would be willing to do it.
Or a machine shop.
It may be expensive, but a lot cheaper than a totally messed up crankshaft.

I would be willing to bet that they tried to loosen that nut while they had everything red hot, that's why metal gaulds,it would have been better to let everything cool just a bit before turning it, the same applies to the cylinder glands that need heated to break loose, I have seen a few of those gaiuled also, same situation, turning it while everything is close to melting temp.

With no bolts and flat washers holding those liners down there is a good chance they will go up if you turn the crankshaft.
So far I haven’t had that problem. Im done turning it now. Have it in time. About ready to put the cylinder head on. Going to lap the valves first. Was going to take the head in but since it’s been worked on I changed my mind. You all know what I will need to transfer over to the 188 for it to work in the C? The dipstick tube on the 207 is short and the one on the 188 is long. I ended up bending the tube on the 188. But I don’t think I can use it anyway.
Another question. I’m wanting to put a block heater in this for old weather. Read online that I can take out that plug on the left rear side of the block and install one there. That hole tho doesn’t look very big for a heater to go into. It’s the one with the 5/16 square hole.
