Balancer spacing question
I replaced the balancer on my 01 LS6. It's the summit version. It looks like it's spaced to far inward. Is that even possible?
I used the same balancer on my 01 LS1 and it was fine. Did the same exact install. Any ideas?

Does the pressed on depth agree with the service manual procedure?

So I used the procedure to torque the old bolt to 240 lb ft. I'm assuming it pushed the balancer too far in. That said, how would you keep that distance with the 235 torque that the ARP bolt requires?

In both my responses, I asked questions that went unanswered. If you are going to request forum members for help, at least have the courtesy to answer each question asked. I'm out. Good luck.

While I appreciate your help, I didn't know there was an expiration date for replies. I've never said that to anyone on the forum, and you're the first to say it to me. I'm sure everyone on this forum has a day job, so your response was unexpected. Thanks for your help and I'll look somewhere else.
