[DeTomaso] Damper

[Doug Braun]

Dan,

	The Pioneer 872027 may be equivalent to the Powerbond PB1082-SS, and if so
here's the Pioneer version for well under $200.  This is the one I bought.
If Mikey bought the Powerbond version, maybe he and I should swap pics of
our dampers to see if they're identical.

I assume you're looking for a standard elastomer type damper and not
a viscous or Lanchester type damper.  I'm not a fan of Professional
Products, Pro Form, TCI, Fluidampr or Engine Works harmonic dampers.
The good ones are FRPP, Powerbond, Innovators West, Romac and BHJ.
ATI is good too but expensive.  Powerbond is an Aussie company and last
I checked is making the Pioneer SFI-spec balancers.  For a 351C, the
FRPP damper is p/n M-6316-C351.  I recently sent Mike Drew to Alex
Denysenko at Money Maker Racing for his balancer.  Alex's email is
monymkrssla at aol.com.  He sells at least the Powerbond and FRPP parts.
I think Mike said his was around $250 and I know Alex ships overseas
(tell him I sent you).  FWIW, I've got a Powerbond SFI balancer on the
dyno engine, an FRPP on another and Romac on a third 351C.
