Jenny - Your right! You have to have the externally balanced damper and flywheel/flex plate and all the other internal parts to be balanced as a package.

So if you see a front damper with lots of holes drilled in the back side you will know that it's been matched to some combo.

I should add that http://www.Flatlanderracing.com has 44 lbs cranks for just under $949
