I somehow doubt they are the same. Dunno never pulled mine off but the system in which they are attached is insanely different. Lima is keyed and not even pressed, it "shouldn't" require a puller to remove. The duratec bolt might even be torque to yield since it requires a very specific torque value to work (it's not keyed, and the balancer holds the crank pulley on which is also not keyed) the duratec system is friction only and if it let's loose your buying a new engine. Even loosening the balancer on a duratec before locking the camshafts will result in engine damage.So Lima and duratec must be the same them. Im sure it can be a lil shorter..
The newer jeeps dont have a key way and the bolt is reusable..... dont knowI somehow doubt they are the same.

I could be completely wrong, but just based on how different the engines are I'd think the duratec bolt is larger, finer, or TTY.
Let's not drag the Italians into this....The newer jeeps dont have a key way and the bolt is reusable..... dont know
Dirt track requires a distributor ignition, aka old old block. (Pre 86?)Doesn't seem to be. Whats weird is you would think with all the dirt track guys, there wound be an arp bolt.
