Well guys, when I took off the harmonic balancer I noticed there was no key. I failed to mark how it came off. I asked a couple techs over here and they told me just to put it on. I dont buy that. So now what do I do? I read somewhere here put it at top dead center and align a pointer of the balancer at 12:00 and that should be it. What is the real deal boys???

LoL.

The harmonic balancer on the LS engines are not keyed (except the early 97 LS1 Corvette engine)(?)

It obviously doesn't matter which way it goes. It's just a press fit that's held in very tight.

Your next post is probably going to be: "How do I tighten this damn #@$&! thing?"
