Every engine has some sort of crank balance, they're not just for "v8's"  |
from what Mike from NST told me, the harmonic dampener is not necessary, and a lot of the dampening and balance comes from the belt anyways. I think the harmonic dampener problem is a myth, since plenty of people swear by pulleys and havent reported many problems. Every "problem" someone has come up with has been a "he said she said I heard" type of deal, but nobody saying "omg my engine blew up because of the pulley"
