Should point out, the build is by Paul Bate of Flat Four Performance FOR Paul and Mike Smith...

Use of a harmonic balancer in the form of a heavy crank pulley is common on high performance VW motors, so works just the same on 356/912s too.

160bhp from a fully streetable 356 motor is impressive.

Thank you. Paul B responded on SM. The pulley is a homemade special.

Discussion here about the benefits. Something about a spinning top v yo-yo
