They have tools that hold the flywheel to loosen the balancer bolt. Usually an Autozone will loan/rent the tool needed.
Also remember that on an LT1 the hole in the middle for the crank bolt is much smaller than a standard small block balancer, so a regular balancer puller doesn't work as it bottoms out on the balancer instead of the crank itself. I have used a 7/16 fine-thread bolt threaded into the end of the crank with a gap between it and the balancer, and then setup the puller to push off the head of the bolt.
