Default harmonic balancer and flywheel question

i have a new type s engine, and the crank pulley/ harmonic balancer was damaged to the point where my belts would get ruined, so i have my old one to put on. meanwhile i changed the clutch with the newer performance clutch i bought for my old motor and had the old motor's flywheel resurfaced so i put that on the new engine. i noticed that the crankshaft pulley and the flywheel both are balanced from the factory and differently than the new ones i received with the new engine. Are the flywheel and crank pulley both balanced with the crank of the motor it is going to be put on, or are they done like a car wheel and tire on a machine ?

Well, Honda engines are internally balanced and you can bolt on any flywheel or crank pulley you want and if they are individually balanced it will be fine. So I would assume the engine itself is balanced separately from the external parts....

I think hes talking about the aftermarket flywheels and pulleys being balanced.

Lets see you pull that hammer out on this post

Yeah, the good quality ones are balanced...depends on what you get.

This post has no need for a hammer, there is no false information posted. But here's one just for you
