Default Balancer

I've noticed that my Harmonic Balancer is a little bit wobbly and I have a couple questions for anyone who has more knowledge than me. I want to ensure that all my mods are listed and as well as future mods. Right now I have Long Tube ARH, Volant CAI, ported and polished TB, and tuned (probably need to do it again just moved from NC to AZ). I do have a very small amp running a sub which eventually I will upgrade to a better system. My future upgrades will be a head and cam package (not sure yet) and maybe if I'm lucky to have some spare money laying around a procharger. Now that that is all out of the way, the AC delco replacement part is discontinued and the only one I see is a Dorman OE replacment. I can't say I have an issue against them I just rather use a GM part than a knock off and in that case since I plan on getting head/cam is it a good idea to get a underdrice pulley now or wait? Also will it affect my alternator/battery that much? I'm sorry for the long question but as you see in torn on what to do. Any advice or suggestions are greatly appreciated as well as part numbers if anyone has a good suggestion for a pulley or a OE replacment. This is an '02 Trans Am BTW.
