Default balancing a fidanza aluminum flywheel

I rescently bought an aluminum flywheel from Fidanza part number 198501 and was wondering how the flywheel is balanced since there is no visible way to transfer the weight from the stock flywheel. Any help would be appreciated

theres no LT1 guys that know how to balance one of these flywheels? Its an externally balanced motor so the weights have to go somewhere. Noone has experience with these flywheels?

I have a Fidanza. There should be a steel weight bolted to the back. I took my OE FW and the Fidanza to my local engine shop. They matched the balance of the OE FW to the Fidanza. They actually removed some weight from this steel pad.
The OE FW is not a zero balance FW like some other SBC FW and it`s addition weight is cast in: look at the back of the OE FW, you`ll see the raised areas.
