Damper shim? - 04/10/11 08:38 PM
My balancer, as well as a few other balancers I've tried, will not seat against the crank gear without using some sort of shim. Using an LA cover like the dude on here sells, and I am using a geardrive. The crank gear is the same thickness as any other so it's not that. I really dont know what it is, but dont care anymore. I just need one.
Anyone make these?
I tried making one today out of a large diameter hardened washer (nnly thing I could find), and forget it. broke a diamond bit and even my carbon steel cutters wont do it. I'll be 70 by the time I get the hole large enough and cut a keyway.
Anyone know if I can buy these somewhere already made? It's the last thing I need to do for my engine and it's really wearing my patience thin.
Oh the problem is the damper is hitting the timing tab before it seats.
Thanks in advance...
