My 79 has an 8" balancer. I had a real bad time in replacing mine. Finding the correct size wasn't the problem though. I bought an el-cheapo from the local auto parts place and found out that it was not made in the ole US of A after I'd pressed it back onto the crank and the pulley bolt threads were not machined correctly. 
Had one heck of a time getting tapping them out. Next time I'll do two things differently: (1) buy only USA parts 
and (2) check everything while its on the bench.
