[DeTomaso] crankshaft damper

[doug351c]

Justin,

Did you buy the 80006 Powerforce or the 90006 Powerforce+?  And who did you
buy it from?

My notes on their dampers say:
Professional Products dampers for a 351C need an added 81006 (0.35" wide, 4
bolt) Spacer and 0.070 removed from damper snout length if a 0.917" wide
crank sprocket is used.  Did you run into this?  RPM Machine sells these
dampers under the "Scat" brand.

i did a lot of internet research on crankshaft dampers.  I ended up with A
Professional Products damper.  nice timing marks, super nice quality.  the
counter balance weight is bolted on.  Not expensive at all.  All the other
brands seemed to be either twice the price or have some occasional horror
stories.  at the time, was not available from summit i dont think but I bet
it is now.  seems to work fine, although I have not driven the engine much
yet.  The timing marks were perfectle placed.  sure looks nice.  justin
