Default ATI balancer hub ?

anyone running this on a 96 lt1 car using a single roller with ckp reluctor still. Does this interfere with anything at all?

No issues here either.
Just don't use the spacer they provide, it's for cars that don't have reluctor rings.

The ATI hub ships with a spacer that is exactly the same thickness as the reluctor ring.
Early LT1s don't have a reluctor ring, so the spacer is needed to keep the belt in line.
If you install that spacer on a car that DOES have a reluctor ring, the ring ends up smashed against the timing cover and out of range of the CPS.
