At the key way: I would use a 3 inch cut-off wheel to rough cut and then finish with a dremel with a small cut-off wheel for best control and cut thru the hub into the keyway (but not the crank) then I would go 180 degrees from the keyway and cut the hub most of the way with a dremel but stay a bit proud so as to not hit the crank. A chisel should then finish the job to create two half circles which should then easily remove. Heck you might not even need to use the chisel. The relief cuts should relieve the press fit enough that it will pop off with your puller quite easily and you could avoid having to apply heat to a crankshaft which I would prefer to avoid if possible.
Also not to hi-jack the thread: but I was always under the impression that hydraulic bottle jacks would not work laying on their side but I guess yours jack does. Since I do not have a porta power I have always used old truck manual screw jacks or manual scissor jacks for horizontal loading applications. Guess maybe I should try some of my newer hydraulic jacks to see if they will work horizontally. I do know some of my older hyrdralic jacks will not work other than vertically.

My Papaw raised "baccer" (tobacco) and corn with the Super A, but the fondest memory was of the sawmill. He owned a small sawmill for sawing "baccer" sticks. The Super A was the powerplant. When I was old enough (7 or 8), I would get up early and be dressed to
