Balancing issues

I have a forged crank, eagle H beam rods, and some speedpro pistons. I am going to have everything balanced, but my question for you guys is this:

What should I do about the external balancer? I am going to run a Procharger P1SC, and am curious as to what will work, etc?

Thank you!

Is your crank broached for a key at the hub? It should be for a blower. Most after market Mfr's of balancers make theirs with keyways. I have a fluidamper and it is keyed. The super damper from ATI is also keyed. Avoid the fluidamper. I know from experience it will rattle your teeth out until it warms up.
