327 balancer info

Post by jimmyhemi »

Can y'all help with finding harmonic balancer .
Fits 1964-67. It's 63/4 diameter.
This one has the timing mark inline with the keyway.
Most are 10° offset.
This is for restoration project to keep the original timing tab.
Thanks for input.

If yours is not cracked then just send it out to the Damper Doctor and it will come back rebuilt and better then new!

Just put you own TDC mark on a new one where it needs to be.

my understanding is:
68 & back sbc Damper has its timing groove located 2* advanced from keyway.
69 & up sbc Damper has its timing groove located 10* advanced from keyway.

see Pioneer damper pn DA3270-HD

6.12" outer ring OD
4.63 pounds weight

perhaps your damper ring has slipped (from +2* to +10*) ...Dunno ? OR ... it hasn't slipped but yours also has a later timing cover-tab ... Dunno ?

pioneer's HD dampers have Vulcanized rubber versus standard's rubber is simply stuffed.

Because of their light weight & small OD, I (& many others) used to run little 327 dampers on 350+ CT motors; we made our own pointer-tabs anyway.
