Nobody has an idea?

I have since tried a new method of placing two grade 8 washers below a grade 8 nut that is threaded onto the top of the shaft. I placed a grade 8 bolt down the shaft and an using a gear puller with the setup. The gear puller pulls against the washers attached to the Primary Drive and pushes the bolt down against the crank shaft. I squirted Kroil down the shaft and heated the base with a propane torch while placing enough pressure on the gear puller that the (2) grade 8 washers are bending and the PD has not budged. I am running out of ideas here...I left the setup under pressure in hopes that it will work its way lose, but not holding my breath.

Do I need to get a hotter torch and heat it till it begins glowing?
