408 pulley alignment issues Anyone else ever have alignment issues when putting an iron block 408 in your c5?
Mine is a 97 c5 with a lunati billet stroker kit. Seems as though the balancer needs to get further onto the crank so the pulleys will line up. I am using all arp bolts, and am going to compare the arp crank bolt to a stock one to see if it is too long and not pulling the balancer on all the way.
My only other thought is maybe I need a different balancer, I tried the truck balancer and no way (hits steering rack)
Any suggestions?
