Stock Harmonic Balancer Reliability???
As far as the OEM crank pulley how is the reliability of it on high HP builds? Is it a weak point in the LS3 as far as breaking or is it nothing to worry about? I'm talking primarily for drag racing

Pin it....There are better options, but at least have it pinned when you change the cam or go FI.

we ended up changing it out when we went twin turbo. I'm around 800 hp on 6 psi, old one wasn't cutting it.

What do you mean by it wasn't cutting it? What was going wrong with it?
