Thanks for the help, everyone!
Locking the flywheel? Get yourself a 6" piece of steel bar and drill a small hole at one end (large enough to go over one of the pins on the flywheel) and another hole at the other end (large enough to insert one of the transmission bolts through it). Use one of the transmission bolts to anchor the bar (make sure it is threaded well into the motor) and slide the other end of the bar over one of the pins on the flywheel.
