04 Silverado, Balancer Question

04 Silverado, Update & Questions
Have been working on this truck since April, finally got to a point where I can start it. The front end was rattling, almost like a bad springed coupler in the nose of the blower, but worse when messing with the tensioner.
Looked over old threads, found the correct idler pulleys and the gates tensioner. That solved the rattling, but the belt was still jumping a rib towards the motor and squeaking.
The balancer bolt was finger tight, going to have to order some pins and pin this one as well.
My question is, does anyone make a 6 rib overdrive balancer? Something in aluminum maybe?
I have seen threads about the 8-rib balancer, but right now my wife probably wouldn't stand for me buying all of the required pulleys.
Thanks again, Justin

Just an update and a quick question.
I just got around to ordering this balancer, and found it on sale for under 190 shipped.
Now the question for anyone that's pinned a crank with a keyway, do you pin inline with the keyway, 1st pic, or do you pin it opposite the keyway?
I bought some pins from supercharger online, as I still have the drill and reamer, and would love to get this in this weekend.
