Difference between C5 balancer and F-Body? Having trouble finding out what the exact offset distance the corvette balancer is from the F-body. Was thinking the C5 balancer was .75" closer to the front cover than the F-body balancer but didn't know if that was an exact amount or an approximation.
Anyone know exactly what the difference is?

From my records, I have the following:
The main accessory drive is .838" closer to the motor (front cover) on the LS6 balancer. The AC drive is 1.206" closer to the motor.

Those dimensions are what I personally measured with the two balancers side-by-side. I also have the dimensions referenced from the the part of the balancer that seats against the crank. And yes, the AC drive is much more displaced on the LS6 balancer (1.206"). There's a photo of the LS1, LS6, and truck balancers on the S&P site that may help you visualize the differences. Hope this helps,
