How do you remove the clutch on a JLO 230?

Is it just tapered? If so how do you get it off? I read some of the older ones were threaded and tapered. Anyone take one off and how?

Its actually at my buddies. He has been trying to make one of these things run for a couple of years now. He has somehow accumulated 3 engines. He is at the point he is going to use one as the test engine. Testing how to take it apart that is... He doesnt think it has the threaded outside part. That it seems to be one piece not threaded on just tapered. He is going to try the redneck approach on YOUTUBE. Where you fill the end up with tranny fluid and put in a bolt with teflon tape and use hydraulics to pop it off... I havent heard from him yet.........

I thought they had just a taper (30mm or some older one had 25mm). I use a drill blank in the hole in the crank. Thread a bolt into the clutch until it hits the drill blank and tighten till it pops off. At least the salsbury clutches on all my kohler and ccw engines come off like that.
