What size is the center bolt on the crankshaft pulley?

I'm trying to bring my car to #1 TDC and my 3/4 rachet keeps slipping and 11/16" is too small. Please don't tell me it's metric--my set stops at 15mm.

You shouldn't turn it with that bolt anyway. If you snap that bolt or strip the threads, you're the one that's gonna be screwed.

You need to remove the pulley and use a tool like this...
