Message	it would be difficult to attribute the failure to the pulley vs just exceeding the capabilities of the stock crank. I think it's safe to say that at most power levels it is OK to not run a dampened pulley...but as you approach the 1000rwhp level, is a broken crank the result of too much boost, or destructive harmonics from running an un-dampened pulley?
