I was reading some about the harmonic balancer having rubber that can get corroded and make it unbalanced, and being as I jacked it up by that piece I assume I might have caused some further damage. I figure I might as well replace it while I am in there because Im sure it is still OEM. Im excessive sometimes when replacing parts. I will replace cheaper items if they are in a difficult to get to place that I will already be ripping into. I found most of these parts on rockauto. They have the cloyes gear set and their pricing is always very competitive.For the timing chain I recommend the Cloyes true roller:

I think the plastic Dorman cover is fine. You can get it off Amazon for about $20 free ship but probably want to add it to your Summit order to get over the free ship mark if you get the timing chain from them. You'll need a gear puller to get the 4x reluctor wheel and crank sprocket off and a hollow tube for tapping them back on (I used a 1.5"x6" iron pipe nipple from Lowes which worked well). 1A Auto has a good video for timing chain replacement that will go through everything you'll face. Three issues with the video though: (1) they call the 4x reluctor wheel the "oil flinger" which is annoying, (2) they line up dot-to-dot and say this is #1 TDC compression which is both wrong - it's #6 TDC compression, #1 TDC exhaust - and very annoying and (3) they WAY overtorque the cover bolts. IIRC they say 18 ft-lbs in the video which is a good way to break the bolts. Correct is something like 100in-lbs max. The hardest part is getting the crank pulley off. Everything else is pretty easy. Why are you replacing the harmonic balancer?
Ill check out the A1 auto video and do some more research to make sure I know what Im doing. Appreciate your help.
