I've never heard that called zero balance, usually neutral. That's how mine is balanced.

There was a thread on CF where a big hp roots guy was arguing that there is no need for a dampener on an internally balanced engine.

There's not, but how are you going to time it and bolt on the blower pulley?

See below. Smart way to save 8lbs of rotating mass.

It looks like some companies make snouts to replace the dampener, or you can remove the outer steel weight and run a stock one.

The theory seems to be that blower belts work as dampeners.

Same cost either way, won't hurt it to have a dampener. Can't remove the outer weight on a sbf, won't work like that
