Some balancers have a removeable weight IE; fluid dampener, others donot. If it's removeable is still certifyable, we have called fluid dampner on this question.

On a Fluidampr you can just buy the hub for internal balance motor and use your balancer ring. about 60 bucks. Just bolts on...but the older ones with flat head torx bolts were different.

I like them. I run an ATI on this motor but my 454 had a fluidampr...It was ext balance and I was gona switch the hubs but they changed their design ..mine had flat/ chamfer head torx bolts and they now use countersunk allan heads so it would not bolt to the new style hub...otherwise I could have just purchased a nuetral balanced hub and saved some money. I got this info from Fluidampr.
