    I have a harmonic balancer/dampner that needs to be rebuilt. This is one of those hard find replacements for Olds W-31 specific versions. Olds specific vendor Supercars Unlimited no longer does this service. Does anyone have any recommendations for a place to rebuild them?

    Thanks,
    Chris

    There is a fellow in Salem, Oregon that rebuilds them and I had him do one for me a couple of years ago and
    he does tons of them. He is a one man show and works out of his house. He spent a lot of time showing my friends and I his process and he is very methodical and anal in his work. He is very reasonable on price too. His name is David Langsather.

    Thanks.

    I had several recommendations for Damper Doctor so I used them. I spoke to John, who was stunned I had a couple W-31 balancers to get redone. He knew how rare and expensive they were and gave me a 10% discount.
