Several shops will cut the p/s belt section of an oem unit, then have it balanced. Much cheaper than an aftermarket unit and it is actually functional unlike those cheap billet pulleys.

I remember seeing this on Kingmotorsports web site at one time. Give them a try.

Hondas are internally balanced engines.. a stock crank pully will be more then enough, unless you have some wild setup.

I've seen oem stock balancers hold up to a full drag B16 motor reving to 11k

just run a stock pulley. If you want to take some weight off the rotating mass use a lighter flywheel.

yeah i might just do that

not meaning to thread jack. But I beleive when I bought my ls it had a ebay Crank pulley. should I replace it with a stock one?

i've seen some heated debates on this topic before so i won't go there. But i think most anyone can agree that running the OE pulley comes with the best piece of mind. If you want to better form your own opinion do some reading/research on what an engine damper does and what the difference between damping and balancing of an engine is. I think this is where a lot of the common misconceptions stem from.
