You have to use a puller in conjunction with a very long, very narrow bolt. It has to fit all the way inside the balancer and touch the actual crank. None of the bolts that came with my puller could accomplish this, so I had to go buy one that would. After I got the right bolt it came off rather easily.

Balancer should come off fairly easy, The crank snout is what most people have a problem with. Might not be the right way to do it, but I usually slightly tap the balancer with a hammer.

Mine was rusted on solid. I had to use a puller (brake type I think) my uncle gave me. I pulls from the outside with 3 arms instead of the 3 inside bolts since the LT1 balancer is a 2 peice. And you dont need to pull the hub, usually.
