Not that I'm by any means an expert, but I would think only one.

I'm no expert either, but on my 351W engine balance, of the two, only the
flywheel had weight added to it to balance out the system, not the harmonic
balancer.

From what I understand, the harmonic balancer and flywheel/flexplate are a
set. A 50 oz harmonic is for a 50 oz flywheel, etc. You can't mix a 28 oz
balancer with a 50 oz flywheel/flexplate.
