You can use a heavy duty flathead screwdriver instead. All you have to do is position the tip inbetween two teeth and then as you turn the crank with the breaker bar just let the flathead/prybar hit the bellhousing. I hope you aren't trying to stop the flywheel with the prybar just with your hands. You don't have to use any force on the flywheel directly, just keep the prybar/flathead positioned on the bellhousing and let it do all the work. I actually used a crowbar to stop my flywheel. Just use something that will fit inbetween the teeth and is heavy duty enough to not bend when it hits the bellhousing. Its kind of like taking the starter bolts and nuts out, you put a wrench on the nut and spin the bolt until the wrench hits something like the firewall and that keeps it from spinning. I hope you understand what I'm talking about. Good luck.
