Nitrousbird Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 I need an SFI approved balancer for the Formula now. My main choices are ATI, Fluidamper, and Jegs. The ATI and Fluidamper are both about $100 more than the Jegs setup. If I was running a supercharger, I'd have the ATI no questions asked. If I was running over 7k RPM, I'd go w/ the ATI or Fluidamper. But a street/strip motor never going over 7k, I'm not sure. Has anyone here actually ran a Jeg's balancer? I gather there are a couple other choices for SFI approved LT1 balancers out there, but at the cost of the ATI/Fludamper, I'd just go w/ one of those. I just don't know if I can trust the Jegs balancer. I'd hate to save a $100 then wreck a couple thousand in parts because it failed. But if people have had success with them, that's a different story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurkvinny Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 *Not* having that little voice in the back of your head wondering if the damper will fly apart for the next 5 years is well worth the extra cash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
