Default Best Harmonic Vibration Balancer?

Looking to buy a high quality harmonic balancer for my 347 stroker engine. Seems to be plenty on the market including Romac, Fluidampr, TCI Rattler and more. Would really appreciate some help on which balancer is the best to go with or at least one I should be be considering?

Thanks

I can honestly recommend Pro Race. They are SFI approved and can take up to 18,000 rpm. I use to work there. They are also re-badged and sold as Ford Racing and Roush so dont pay extra for them !

Sorry I can't get you a good deal in the US. All of them are distributed and SFI numbered and have to be accounted for. I have one on my car.

Oz, thanks for the feedback. Would you consider the Pro-Race a better balancer than say Romac? Was hoping for some explanation as to the key differences between these balancers and why one would be better than the others. Anybody?

I think I'm gonna go with a romac . I say if it's sfi approved , then it's good enough .
