I first put the balancer on an engine without a counterweighted crank - immediate and noticeable improvement. Later, I switched it to an engine with a counterbalanced crank.

I'm attributing the excellent life I have had out of that engine in part, to the harmonic balancer.
PS By life out of that engine, I mean life out of that rebuild. There will be more to come. It's only 0.060" oversize in the bores.
