Crank pin kit
I'm replacing my stock harmonic balancer with a Power Bond Race balancer part # PB1117SS . I want to pin the crank since I have balancer off... Who makes the best crank pin kit for the LS2?? I know some crank pin kits are specific to the balancer. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

ICT Billet has the standard 2 pin crank pinning kit, like the one that comes with the Magnuson blower kits. This type will work with any balancer.
Innovators West has the best crank pinning kit I’ve ever seen, which uses the keyway in their balancers. But I think it’s specific to their balancers. Remember that if you’re using the standard round pin kit with an aftermarket balancer with a keyway, you need to fill the keyway with some RTV silicone before you install it, otherwise it may leak oil around the bolt.
Heres the link to the ICT Billet kit:
