If you must replace, some good things to do "while you're in there" are, depending on mileage, new timing chain & gears, a different cam, & perhaps a new oil pump. Depending on where you live, an UD pulley may free up some power. I say depending on location because Ive run a 25% UD balancer for 17 years. If you live in the Northern states, you'll be OK. BUT-If living in the Desert SW, or Southern tier of states, you would probably be better off with a 10% UD balancer. My brand of choice is an ASP, but there are now cheaper alternatives.......
