Any experience with ATI blems?
I did the same. Mine got here last week. Haven't taken it out of the box yet but bought with confidence knowing ATI's reputation plus the included warranty. Saves quite a bit over retail prices.
You seriously can't beat the price and performance.
I requested mine to be built with the high rpm elastomer and they did it at no charge. You've just gotta put that in the notes.

Verdad Gallardo Mine as well. Just a bit of paint "burr" where the little bolts are. It's still sitting on my shelf with a slew of other parts waiting to go on.

Update: Nevermind. I found it.
Do you have a link for the one you purchased? I'm looking for one as well. Hoping I can find the site/vendor because when I search in google, all I get are the 300 - 400 dollar ones.
Thanks,
Dave

In my haste to buy one for my Fbody 5.3 turbo on Ebay before it was purchased by someone else (there was only one left) I clicked "Buy it now" and finished the transaction before understanding that I'd actually bought one for a C5. DOH!!!.. I quickly emailed 'The seller' and told him of my mistake and asked if he could send me one for a Fbody instead. He responded later that evening and said he'd check on Monday(yesterday) and let me know if he could put an Fbody hub on that balancer. Yesterday, he said he was successful and it was already shipped! Amazing customer interaction and service. Highly recommend this !
Let me say again, Thanks SO much for posting this OP. I found this thread in a random search last Friday.

Got mine a while back, wanted a 10% but all they had was a 25% so I went with that. The only blem I could see was that the sticker wasn't perfectly flat? Sure, Ill take a big discount for a stupid sticker.

I called ATI before I bought one and asked what would be wrong with it. There customer service rep told me that most of the blems they sell could pass as nothing wrong with them and if it is noticeable it will be a small scratch or something along those lines. They have high standards when it comes to their products they sell. He also said they would never sell a piece that would not perform the way it was intended to and if I didn't like what I received, I could send it back no questions asked. I think it's cool that they offer these on to the public instead of wholesaling them to one of their dealers.
