Default What is everyone running for SFI Harmonic Dampener/Balancer?

Im to the point where i will have to upgrade to an SFI approved Ballancer.

Just wanted to hear some opinions.

I know of ATI, and Fluidamper, what do you think of these and are there any others?

ATI race damper with steel hub. I wouldn't use an aluminum hub. I have seen the keyway get jammed into the hub on an aluminum one

Useing the proformance plus pulley made by the people that make the AEBS intake manifold... anyways, works good, only 1 broken oil pump gear after 13,ooo miles. Oh and be sure to get it balanced because mine was not when I got. Guess you cant bet it for $170

LOL, is that a joke? You can't beat a crappy pulley for $170? If you send me your oil pump and $150, I'll break it for less!

I bought the ATI race damper with the steel hub, no regrets yet.

ive used both the fluidamper and the ATI. currently have the fluidamper and like it a bit more only based on the fact its smaller and easier to take off while the motor is in the car.

zero broken oil pumps, ever. (knock on wood)

So get it balanced and only have to worry about a few oil pump breakages to save how much? No problem then, when your motor blows because of your oil pump failure, you can take some of that saved money to start fixing things.
