Best Balancer?

Hi guys i was just wondering who manufactures the best harmonic balancer and why? I was looking into the TCI and ATI but not sure which to go with. Also will I have any problems with a %25 underdrive on a street car? thanks a lot!

I like my SLP powerdyne. Never had a problem with it. Seems to come off easier for cam swaps than the stupid stock pulley.

I like the March pulleys and have one waiting to go on. The purpose of a pulley (harmonic balancer actually) is not just to turn your accessories but to dampen the vibration of the crank. The March is a fluid dampened design and does a better job of absorbing vibrations than some of the other pulleys. This can actually prolong bearing life. It won't trigger knock sensoors either. SDCP has the best price I have seen at $199.
