Default Question on asp balancer/pulley install!

I was just wondering if there was a certain way the asp pulley was to be installed for balancing purposes. The reason I`m asking is when I removed my old balancer I noticed it had like 4 factory holes in it and they were facing up on tdc. When I swapped my cam out I was about to install my asp pulley and noticed like 6 holes drilled different depths in it. My directions didn`t say anything about a certain way for it to be installed. I didn`t know if those holes were supposed to face up on tdc as well, so I figered I would stop for the night and ask you guys.

Those holes we drilled to balance the pully. It doesn't matter.

Put it in the oven on about 250-300* first, it will help. Mine went on so easy, I almost pulled it off and sent it back.

15-20 minutes. You'll definatly need some oven mits to carry it.

The longer you leave it and the hotter the better, but you gotta worry about the part itself and burning the hell out of yourself if it's in there too long. Once you get it out, don't lolley-gag or it will shrink down. Have the bolt and stuff ready to go when you stick it on. Mine sucked all the way in in no time, easy as pie.
