You might be better of putting it IN your engine rather on on it?

Where would you put it IN his engine? At 6 3/4" it won't fit down a cylinder. He COULD pull the pan and lay it IN next to the oil pump pick up. But it might slide back and take out the pick up on a hard launch. I'd use the proper installation tool and install it ON the crankshaft.

I didn't study the sales descriptions real closely, but they all looked like the same item. Pro Force #80001. As near as I can tell, they're all peas in a pod. You pays your money and you take your choice.

RACE ON!!!

Has anyone used one of these? They look too cheap to be true but the one for $114 is SFI approved so it must be balanced well. I wonder if the $33.95 one is any good? I have wanted to get one to replace the stock harmonic balancer on my car since I rev my engine to 6500 rpm.

I don't recognize the names, so I'd pass 'em by.

Just my opinion.
