I ran an underdrive pulley on my GT for 5 years as my DD. Absolutely NO issues.
Greg Was at Pace for sure though! He's the best.

The parts store will have loaner puller. Search this or the other board for the puller detail. It's a three jaw. You will also need a install tool. Several varieties from DIY to ebay. Don't try to pull it on with the bolt - strip the crank treads and you are done. Will need mongo torque wrench -if using arp it's set to 240ftlbs. Do not reuse the factory bolt, it's a torque TTY. New factory or ARP.

I noticed the wobble yesterday after the drive in to work. It was noticeable from inside the car. I drove the car home and did another inspection and couldn’t see it this time. Is it possible for the symptoms to come and go?

Yes...mine would wobble and then stop. When it started to make noise tho...it never got better. Replace it early and be done with it.

Thanks for the help guys it’s always appreciated. Does anyone have the part number for the bolt that holds down the crankshaft pulley?

ARP makes one. Use that. Again, Greg Was can hook you up.
