WTB Crank Hub (GM # 12553250)
The car is 1993 Corvette with stock LT1 engine. I need to replace the harmonic balancer and hub (to which it mates). I am trying to acquire the necessary replacement parts before removing the original ones from the car.
I already have a new Dorman (594-107) harmonic balancer (aka: Crank pulley). It appears to be a true replica of the stock GM #10128489.
But, I am having trouble finding the hub, GM # 12553250.
All usual parts suppliers show the hub as discontinued.
I tried a supposedly compatible replacement hub from Jegs (#51607), but it would not bolt up to the Dorman balancer.
Does anyone have experience to confirm whether the Dorman balancer is a true compatible replacement for stock?
Making the assumption that the Dorman balancer is correct, I still need a stock hub (GM 12553250).
Any help will be appreciated.
