I think the 6 counterweight crank does have more harmonics and is the reason GM went to the 12 weight design.
At around 2000 rpm it seems like they have a shake, maybe a slightly higher rpm. and then it goes away.

My preference is the 12 weight. Even though the earliest ones are forged steel with 6 weights.
