lt4 hub question
is the hub for an lt4 the same as an obd2 f body? trying to find a new keyed one. there is a jegs brand hub in the jegs catalog but i don't know if it will work with the stock balancer? also does anyone have a part number for the balancer bolt and washer, poossibly ARP? thanks

This "keyed hub" thing seems to be coming up a lot lately.
Recently it was hashed out on another thread that the LT4's crank is notched for TWO woodruff keys, but the hub isn't broached to receive one. You can have your stock hub broached by a company like Golen Engines for about $80. BTW, Golen says they ALWAYS builds their engines with dual keys.
I bought my SuperDampr hub/damper from SummitRacing and it came with provisions for both (two) keys. I installed it when I built my 388CID.
