ATI. I had one of those junky Professional Products on my Pontiac and it didn't make it 6 months. the outer ring came loose from the inner hub. You should have seen me trying to time it, LOL.

I've been using the SFI balancers from Pioneer for years. My 360's have been internally balanced using a neutral balanced balancer/damper. They are also sold by Jeg's under their own label.
Never a problem, externally or internally. Internal parts always look good.

I use a Pro-Race (SFI) balancer on my Oldsmobile SB (7200 rpm), and it has been a good piece.

I just had my ATI rebuilt. Actually it was sent in to get a different durameter (sp?) isolater ring for a higher RPM going from Stock to SS. After ten years of use it was in perfect condition. I also saw that episode of Pinks. I knew immediately it was a balancer ring. Get what you pay for!

Fluidamper is heavier than most; does not work well in all applications either. There is an SAE paper on racing balancers and Fluidamper was not that good in dampening the harmonics and/or preventing crank flex.

ATI on our pontiac engines.No bearing issues,hundreds of passes.Although we have one pontiac 400 that sits in the corner waiting for a rebuild that has a TCI rattler on it that has about 800 passes on it,1 set of bearings at about 300 passes,and that was a waste of money because they looked almost new.
