Default pickin a harmonic balencer

i'm going through my parts wish list for my engine build and i came to balencers and i realized ihave no idea how to pick one. Do you need to get one to match what your engine was balanced at?

romac, leave those silly fluid or internal weight dampers alone, so you have a balanced rotating assembly but no balancer?

hmm I wonder how people balance a rotating without giving you the needed parts for balance, unless its 50oz and they just tell you to get a 50 balancer.
