When installing an engine or replacing a crankshaft on a 2007-2009 LaCrosse, Allure (Canada only), CTS, SRX, STS, G6; 2007-2010 Enclave, Acadia, AURA, OUTLOOK; 2008-2009 G8, Torrent; 2008-2010 Equinox, Malibu, Camaro, VUE; 2009-2010 Traverse; 2010 LaCrosse, CTS, CTS Wagon with 2.8L or 3.6L High Feature V6 Engine (VINs D, T, V, 7; RPOs LP1, LLT, LY7), the keyway on the replacement may be different from the original. Also, other engine components may be different and need to be used from the original engine.

If the original has a keyway slot (Fig. 16) and the replacement has a round hole (Fig. 17), use round pin part number 12585420 in the crankshaft and then install the harmonic balancer. Install a new bolt and torque it properly. The harmonic balancer will not need to be changed.
