[DeTomaso] Harmonic balancer

[Boyd Casey]

I just did some reading up on harmonic balancers and the post i read said
the the balancer had to be press fit onto the crank. Can this be done with
the motor in the car?

   I just found out that my Harmonic balancer is shot. I have noticed a
   wide range of prices from just over $100 to close to $500 ( I'm sure if
   i tried I could find some that were even more expensive. What is the
   consensus as far as the harmonic balancer best suited to a Pantera with
   351 Cleveland that has been mildly modified? I don't want to spend more
   money then is necessary A , but I also don't want junk. Any pointers or
   suggestions?
   Thanks,
