Default ATI damper question

Does anybody have any experience with damper part no 917271? I bought one used off ebay and installed it on my 1995 camaro and then while reading the ati website noticed something about a 916320 hub spacer, do i have to pull this all back apart?
thanks jason

If you have a 93,94,95 Fbody with the stock accessories then you should have the spacer installed between your crank sprocket and the ATI hub so that it can create the exact same spacing as the stock hub/damper for accessory alignment, (serp belt).

If you have a 96/97 Fbody then you don't use that spacer.

The spacer takes the place of the crank reluctor for cars that do not have a crank reluctor.
