Holy carp. Did it give you any warning before it let go? Usually guys will get really bad vibration problems, and continue driving their cars for a month before doing anything about it.......

Not just the balancer to watch for but also the stock balancer bolt. Had my shear off at low rpm ( 10 mph in heavy traffic ). The balancer moved forward but was stop by the motor case on my BM electric fan,it kill the all the fan blade but it did not do any more damage. The side load from a supercharger really stress the unit.
The snout of the balanceralso come apart in my hand when I tried to remove it.
Now I am using a $18 ARP bolt .

Yeah, I had something similar happen once. My balance started working backward and rubbed a hole in the timing cover.
