I like the mod to the nose of the key. That would be helpful especially with and ATI and other press fit balancers

Yeah, ATIs are a tight fit, Powerbond ones too. Those Romax ones you had to hone-to-fit as well.

I had a Powerbond I was re-installing, thought I could do it without dressing the key, it turned slightly as I cranked on the installer, and dug a groove into the balancer.

That's happened twice to me, both times were while the engine was in a car. Not sure if that had anything to do with it or not, but I dress them all now. Couldn't tell it was getting harder to turn until it was too late. That was kind of recent, the one before was like 20+ years ago.
