sbc harmonic balancer

Did I screw up when I ordred my Damper? ATI has several available for my engine (Late Model LT1) My thought was the less weight on the crank the better for performance. So instead of getting the 7.53 inch steel one I got the 6.78 inch Aluminum one. The steel one weighs 9.75 Lbs. the one I got weighs 4.5. I figured that much weight had to be worth something in terms of performance. Should send it back and get the steel one? Or is the Alum ATI super damper as good as the heaver steel one they sell? Thanks
