If I shave/balance my oem pulley will I still be able to use my ac and ps??
Which route should I go purchase an unorthodox Ultra S or ultra R or oem+shaved/balanced?

 

I wouldn't get unorthodox. They are not harmonically balanced pulleys. I would get this:

The street version will allow you to run PS, and A/C. The Comp series deletes PS and A/C.

 

since you say the unorthodox crank pulley is not harmonically balanced what bad does this bring?

Vibrations that they say can shorten your engine's life or kill it

 

just a waste of money unless if your around 500hp.

just a rough outline of parts per hp, but a good refrence point. http://www.evans-tuning.com/te....html

 

I, along with many friends have never experienced any sort of damage from using a pulley w/o a harmonic balancer.

 

a harmonic balancers like a condom - yes you may not always need one, but you will feel alot safer if you got one.

or so how i look at it... check out the link i posted above, that should give you a good outlook on building a motor.
