depends on how the crank is keyed....the Bryant stuff is keyed like a sbf....3/16" all in line.

The FRPP A460 and A521 units are keyed 3/16 and 1/4" 180* apart.....works with either snout.

I used to run the ATI, but the Inovators West is the bomb. No need for a MSD wheel on the pro model.

OH, who's was it. I'll talk to them and see how they narrowed it down to the balancer.

Dang Lem, here is another ATI. Must be the only two in the world bolted to the end of a crankshaft. Upon closer observation, this may be a Rattler, I'll find out.

Bad things happen to good persons/parts.

True Lem. Upon verification, yes my pic is a TCI Rattler. He (the owner) doesn't believe it was the fault of the balancer though. huh?

It's coming together.....both these deals may belong to the same owner.
