Default Which balancer for 7000-7500rpm

Will the ASP pulley I allready have be ok? Or should I go out and get an ATI pulley? Or what about the summit version?

every one recomends the most expensive one availible.

but has anyone ever heard of one fail?

stock cranks are good for 1000 hp and i have never heard of a stock crank failure

just seems like a lot of money is wasted on stuff that don't make hp

engines will fail race engines and stock engines no mattter how much money spent will not stop the freak failing of a crank,rod or whole engine

I prob should not be posting this but i have seen a junk yard 6.2 with 19 psi on it make 825 rwhp and has been alive for 2 years

these are not 1970 chevy 350's remember when 6" rods where something to brag about these come with 6.098 from the factory

these ls engines can make 7-800 plus rwhp set up right in stock form

if you are going to spin 7500 then get the valve train as light as poss and dont worry about the short block

i have a what i figure to be a good top end set up set me back close to 5k'

but i dont care if you have a 50 dollar or a 500 dollar balancer it wont make more than a 1 hp diff in the end

and plenty of guys are spinning the stockers to 7400 so you tell me why

becasue i have a better chance of winning a million dollar lotto than my crank failing if i do not buy a 400 dollar balancer

lets get real. spend money where it makes power not to make a sweeter sig
