250 Harmonic Balancer

Nathan,
No the 200 one won't fit.
The crank "snout" is the same diameter as a SBF. But the SBF uses a seperate pulley for the accessories.
There is a way that I've been thinking of.....use a SBF SFI type balancer, and fab up a seperate pulley that is basically reversed so that the V-grooves, or better yet, the serpentine belt grooves are located over the outer diameter of the balancer, then it would work great.
Or have a balancer custom made!

Will

Thanks for the reply but I'm not sure i understand fully?!...... Would the seperate pulley be put on backwards and be large enough so that it covers the balancer, rather than just bolting on the front?
Maybe i'll look into a custom build.
Thanks again
Nathan
The 250 I have was built in the old Jack Clifford shop in the mid 90's before he passed. The contact literature I have for the build lists the balancer as a FISHER which I believe was custom made for them. Don't know if any old crew is still at Clifford Performance, but it may be worth checking with them to see if they have any info.
