Default Proper POWERBOND harmonic balancer?

I' rebuilding a 2007 C6 with a LS2 engine (base model) with a e-force S/C kit

I'm looking to buy a HB on a budget and for what I have read in this forum POWERBOND seems a pretty good choice for about half price the ATI costs.

My question is wich model or part number from Powerbond should I buy? I saw they sell street series and race series HB and looks like if I have a supercharged engine I should buy a specific model

Any thoughts here?

For a supercharged application you're going to want a stock size balancer. I don't know the part # off hand but I believe this is it. Might want to confirm before ordering though..

Decreasing your crank pulley size will change boost levels and if that's not your intention you want to go with a stock sized balancer.

Good luck! The PB is a great budget minded option. We install 30-40 of them a year and have no issues.

Put your VIN number in on their website, and you can compare the different setups, to add to the post above.

I don't wnat to change the HB size, but there are two options as far as I can see:

1.- PowerBond™ by DAYCO® Race Performance Harmonic Balancer
http://www.daycoproducts.com/powerbo...monic-balancer



The PowerBond race series brings the advantages of bonded balancers to high revving and high horsepower street/race applications where an SFI approved balancer is required. PowerBond Race Series balancers have been tested beyond 21,000 RPM without failure.

Every PowerBond race series balancer features a precision CNC machined AISI 1045 forged steel hub bonded to an equally strong steel inertia ring. Advanced design mean that race series balancers are very light for an all steel product. In most cases they are only marginally heavier than the original cast iron balancer and generally much lighter than other all steel balancers on the market. The steel inertia ring on the race series models is positively protected against forward and backward movement. PowerBond uses our Race Series high pressure, low cure that features a natural rubber developed in our laboratory.

Every model has easy to read computer etched timing marks. All PowerBond race series balancers meet SFI specification 18.1.
2.- PowerBond™ by DAYCO® Supercharger Balancers
http://www.daycoproducts.com/powerbo...rger-balancers

Designed for high performance supercharged engines

SFI 18.1 approved design
Twin Key ways for secure crank mounting with six pulley bolt hole pattern
High pressure bonded dampening runner for maximum torque resistance
