question is when installing eagle crank and steel rods would you gain any by installing better then stock ballancer ? One builder I talked to about it says it could be debated for ever but I have never seen proof of that , in fact the only two steel cranks that snapped and I had to fix had best harmonic ballancers on them , the other race engine builders said ..after a heavy use and taken apart you could see the difference in #1and 2 rod and #1 main bearings between stock and good harmonic ballancer ...... what you think guys , I am about to ballance the assy. with stock dampner and flex plate or should I upgrade ?
