I just changed out my POS balancer (that came apart) to a Romac brand and I must say that it's a beauty. It's an under two hour job if you have the puller that actually fits (I spent some time fabbing mine to work, then it took all of five minutes to remove it). But if your timing marks are on and appear to advance properly with increasing RPM, I doubt it's going to be the balancer. Here's my detailed thread on the change out: Crankshaft Dampner Separated -- Arghh!
