Question Do car and truck balancers interchange?

I need a small diameter balancer, but it seems that the Corvette is the only one that is smaller than 7.25" in diameter. Will this work with my LQ4 running the truck accessories?

Thanks!!

Not 100% sure but I don't think it will work either...they also use a different harmonic balancer bolt...
Here is a pic of a truck vs. vette pulley..

Oh and there are two different types of vette pulleys... One for the flat face style pulley water pump and one for the bowl shape pulley water pump..Which crank pulley you depends on what style drive accessories you want to run and what style water pump (for vette/gto accessories)...

why don't you just get an underdrive pulley? I got mine from BRIB for 120$ and it's diameter is significantly smaller than the stocker

How much $$ with shipping to 93308?

If it matters, I only need the alt bracket since I'm not running power steering.

Thanks!!
