A large screwdriver or prybar in the flywheel teeth will work, too.

The Volvo has a pair of slots in the balancer for a "special tool" to hold the crank -- bolt has 250 ft/lbs and high strength locktite.... We made a tool -- 24" of angle iron with some solid rod welded to it. run the tool around the the floor, put an 8' pipe on a breaker bar, and have two guys pull.
