I thought it was the 993 that had the external balancer. Either way, I would not try to do my own static balance on a harmonic balancer. It needs to be done by someone with the right machine to spin it up.

Flat 6 engines are naturally pretty balanced without a harmonic balancer so I doubt you would be able to do anything statically- it would seem to already be balanced. The harmonic balancer is meant to quell the harmonic vibrations that result from all the various small vibrations interacting and resonating at certain rpms.
