Re: Need help

Are you referring to the Balancer. Because its actually called a "Harmonic Damper" =

Re: Need help

Harmonic Damper/Harmonic balancer is the same thing, the correct name is damper.

And it is only 1 pc.. The damper presses onto the crank snout and the crankshaft pulley bolts to the front face of damper.

Stock type dampers are made up of 3 parts but do not come apart.. You have the center hub, the rubber ring, and the outer metal ring and they are formed together

Re: Need help

An LT1 damper/pulley has a hub that goes on the crank snout and the pulley/damper bolts onto it. It's not on a 92 and only came on the LT1 93-97 Camaros and firebirds. Does it look like this?
