There is no keyway for the stock damper and the timing gear keyway uses a square key. Can't help you on the ATI, but most that "pin" their dampers use a drill jig that makes a round hole for (yup!) a round pin.

Thanks man
i thought all key ways were square shows how ignorant i am.
Found out that after market cranks come how ever you want square, round, half moon!
In my case, after examination, my crank did not have any keyway and had to be drilled and pinned! The ATI damper i ordered had a square keyway so i just made a round keyway 90degrees from the square one!!
