harmonic balancer replacement

Discussion in ''Da Nailhead' started by gransportspark, Jul 15, 2003.

  1. Hello everyone. Love this site. I have a 65 riviera with a 63
    401 engine, that needs the harmonic balancer replaced. The
    keyway has widened and it won't stay in time. I have another one
    from a 59, 401, they look identical, except for where the balance
    holes are. Can I get away with running it?

    yes! It will work fine for you.
     
  3. Thanks for the advice txgwildcat.
    I installed the balancer yesterday, and it seems to work fine.
    How critical is the balance on these? Should I be trying to
    find one from a 63 motor? And what about hi rpm, will it make
    a difference?
