Anybody EVER installed a MBA billet balancer cover ???

The damn thing doesn't seem to work as it comes with allen bolts that can NOT mount anywhere on the Harmonic Balancer.
The only 3 holes found on the balancer are used to mount it to the Hub.
I have however seen balancers that have 3 extra 'ears' inside the center of the balancer that are drilled with smaller thread and seem to be there for some purpose.

I don't understand how they sell it for 93-97 LT1's yet it doesn't seem to attach to my 94 LT1.

I was afraid of that ... Kinda sucks as all pre 96 vehicles would need to replace that funky balancer for another one and spending extra $$$$ to replace a perfectly good balancer.

UPDATE: ended up getting an used balancer (with the 3 tabs) on Ebay to make it work.

Shame MBA doesn't advertise this 'detail' nor do their resellers, shame .....
