I like the looks but I think the things I like the most are,
It's totally rebuildable. It can be modified to adapt to different engine configurations. All of the pieces have part numbers. Higher rpm? Just replace the elastomeric section with stiffer rubber, or heavier inertia ring, etc. And the insurance it provides my stroker crank gives me peace of mind.
It's also good to 800 hp. Although I have my doubts that I'll get to challenge that limit!

Mine came in! It really does look good, the overall dimensions are the same as the stock unit, the degree marks are in the right place and it has a good fit to the crank. Thanks for making this happen Hammer

I know these balancers are popular but expensive, what makes them expensive is the hub, the only part that relates solely to the 928. The rest is Ford specific from memory and ATI charge quite a lot for the hubs but the rest can be bought discounted. I have spoken to a machinist that used to make the hubs for the V8 Supercar teams he worked for. He told me they didn't use the ATI part but swapped them for alloy in house fabricated parts.
He indicated they would cost around $150 in 7075 and they would be anodised black. I am not sure if that was included in the price. If there is any interest just indicate in the thread, I haven't time to answer PMs at this stage. You are only indicating an interest to purchase, not placing an order, Just to give me an idea of demand.
