You'd be amazed at the engineering skill out there operating from tiny units. Well worth having a quick ask around.

been doing it for years an years an never had a problem, I wouldnt get to caught up in the idea that they have to be 100% balanced.

Just a small word of warning. You can take or leave this piece of advice. If you buy one of the after market pulleys that have no rubber in the pulley then the extra vibrations can make the standard oil pump gear shatter. You can buy a stronger one from SBD(and other places I expect) that will not shatter.

A good friend of mine had this happen and issued me with the above advice. It only took a few hundred rally miles for this to happen to his engine after fitting the solid pulley. Only after this happened to him did he actually find out about the problem from other sources.

A very valid point Dar.
The bottom pulley is the crankshaft vibration damper.
Obviously if you have a well balanced engine, there is less chance of problems......
