Default F=Body Damper on 5.3 crank

Will the LS1 f-body damper fit the 5.3 crank correctly, bringing the pulley system to f-body specs(spacing from the block). Trying to fit a 5.3 into a Ranger, need to to run the f-body power steering setup to clear the gearbox.

Great, i was worried. I remember reading somewhere that the snout on the truck crank was longer, maybe i'm thinking the 6.0.

Backside of early 6.0 cranks was longer. That effects flywheels/converters and such though. I can't recall reading where a snout was longer as people swap 6.0s into f bodies all the time.
