no. The early fbody (93-95 without vented opti) have one crank hub, the vented optis 96 up have diffrent ones, and impalas have diffrent ones all togehter for the diffrent pully setup. do you know where the engine came from, its not hard to tell a camaro engine from an impala engine, all the accessories are diffrent

if the hub is ~4inches then it is originally out of a b-body car. If it has a crank position senesor then you need the f-body 96-97 hub. and if neither of the above then you need a reg 93-95 hub and is about 3.5".

You can find them used for about 25 bux, or thunderracing has one that is keyed for 85 bux pt# 41-872015 made by pioneer but is on back order and production won't be till the first of the year and if you call summit and give them the pioneer number which is 872015 they will have one in their warehouse in a couple days after the one i sent back gets in, but it will be a harmonic balancer instead of the hub for some reason. Jegs has one that is keyed but you also have to use the jegs harmonic balancer, or ATI makes one that is keyed and fits the oem balancer and runs 10x.xx.

If you can't tell i went though this nightmare this past weekend.

Yes you need one for the 93-95 unless you have a crankshaft position sensor. Off the top of my head w/o position sensor it is like 3.516 and if it does have the sensor then it is 3.423 or something of the sort. But f-body and corvette lt1's use the same balancer/hub. The lt4 on the otherhand does have a different hub/balancer.
