Thanks for the help! Thomas did have a damper so I think things
will turn out fine for my friend.

Yup. Over the Cleveland V-8's 5 yr mfg period, Ford sold rubber-damped 
harmonic balancers that weigh anywhere from 8.9 lbs to 12 lbs, all for 
"Clevelands", the later ones being heavier. In addition, the balancers
could be both 
pressed & bonded, or simply pressed-together (the pressed & chemically 
bonded ones were used on Boss 351 and HO engines with mechanical
valvetrains that 
revved higher). I now use a 12 lb Romac pressed & bonded unit with their

mechanical locking device to prevent the outer ring from separating.
Romac 
sells these for competition, for around $250. Seems to do the job- but
only 2 
yrs old. Cheers- J Deryke
