The stock LT1 crank has the keyway, it's the damper hub that doesn't.

Re: Hub-balancer question?
Sorry about the high jack but I have always wondered why there isn't a key way in the hub?

Re: Hub-balancer question?
GM wanted to save a nickel on each engine.

And since it's a damper and not a balancer, alignment isn't critical.
