Review on GM Genuine Parts 19300488 Crankshaft Balancer: Guaranteed Performance and Precision by Anthony Shepherd

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Make sure that there are no razor-sharp cut marks on the face!

I haven't installed the balancer yet and won't try until I've repaired the balancer nose. It has a very rough passage at the tip of the nose where it rubs against the gasket during installation. It's VERY sharp and I'm afraid it will cut or damage the seal. I plan to use a Scotch-Brite Roloc disc or something to smooth the drill bits before assembly. I hate oil leaks and this is easily their source.

Pros
  • Harmonic Balancers
Cons
  • Safety
