I have gotten a few requests on my opinion on harmonic balancers. On most builds, I do not see a great need for an expensive unit. But wondered, who has up'ed the anti on this item to a ATI super damper or a TCI Rattler for there heavier hitting street strip/ride or the race machine.

For street and mild street strip rides, I have not had any issues with more inexpensive balancers.

What would draw my money to purchase one of the above (Or other not mentioned) to my build?

Also, have any of you all experienced pulley fitment issues or alinement issues with an after market balancer?

For myself, I'll (Hopefuley) be working on a 340/3.58 stroker for 372/373 cubes. And then later, my 4.0 arm stroker race mill.

What say you?

I just installed a new Trick Flow #19010 sfi balancer on my 340 stroker and it made a very noticeable difference over the stock balancer. Much smoother now, especially at the higher RPM range when cruising with my 373 gear ratio.
The fit was very tight and the stock pulleys all lined up great. Money well-spent ($175.00)

Are the timing marks etched into the steel or printed on top of the black coating?
