ATI and Innovators West have full kits (balancer and all pulleys sans blower pulley). As already mentioned, LC32 offers a full kit with the IW balancer and T-mac pulleys which is very nice. I decided to piece together my 8-rib kit with the following:
Powerbond 10% OD crank balancer
Billetflow 90mm idlers (already had installed on 6-rib sys but wide enough for 8-rib)
T-mac Alt and Power Steering pulleys (thru LC32)
Gates HD tensioner (comes with 8-rib pulley)
SFPH blower pulley (custom make)
Powerbond 10% OD crank balancer
Billetflow 90mm idlers (already had installed on 6-rib sys but wide enough for 8-rib)
T-mac Alt and Power Steering pulleys (thru LC32)
Gates HD tensioner (comes with 8-rib pulley)
SFPH blower pulley (custom make)

do you have a link to that crank pulley, tried searching and couldn't find it. and do you think stock idlers will be ok for a 8 rib ? they look wide enough

I bought it from Buynspeed, part no. PB081190-SC10. I just checked a stock idler against a 8-rib belt and the belt is ~1/16 wider than the flat surface of the pulley. If alignment was perfect it may work but I wouldn't chance it. It would probably end up wearing the belt irregularly.
