Sometimes these are just called crankshaft pulleys. I don't know if the '56s were balanced or not. Earlier rockets were not - they were balanced internally. I don't know what year they started balancing externally with the harmonic balancer.

Maybe the word you are looking for is vibration dampner?

My 64 98 has a harmonic balancer on the front of the engine and a vibration dampner bolted to the flywheel where the transmission splines to the engine. I had to replace both when I rebuilt my engine. The vibration dampner was a bit harder to find. I bought one from Fatsco transmissions.

Make sure you take pictures of your Rocket and post them. I look forward to seeing it.
