Which balancer are the big turbo guys using? Looking to see what the popular choice is for balancers. I'm sure the ATI will get alot of praise. I'd prefer to not drop that kind of money if possible. Are the TCI or Fluidampers any good? This will be going on a 408/S88 combo.

bob @ www.exoticperformanceplus.com has the part mnumbers and applications listed on his site there. He's a great guy to deal with too, id suggest buying thorough him.
Oh i have the ATI too, but i kept my AC! Not sure if i got the 10% underdrive or not though riht now. Bought it months ago and its still a pile of parts in my room!

I know why I went with mine... Cuz i had to have it to run an 8-rib pulley.. hahaha..jk... I also wanted to run it because on my sbc I threw my stock one out of balance... It looked like a tire that wasn't balanced... Once you start throwing thousands of dollars why cheap out on a piece that it going to allow your engine to have better engine harmonics to a higher rpm and also be sfi approved... Mine does have a 10% underdrive too...
