Default Cutting timing teeth into front vibration damper

Hi

I'm im the process of converting my 383 Chevy motor to fuel injection using a cross ram manifold and two plenums. I need to put a timing wheel onto the front of the motor and if I choose to bolt one onto the damper it will move the belt drive pulley forwards meaning changes to the water pump and alternator pulleys.

The simplest solution is to cut teeth 6mm into the leading edge of the damper using an edge mill.

Can anyone think of a good reason not to do it.
