This thread seems to be for pre-'72 340s, as opposed to another similar one that is '72 up. I removed my '69 340 vibration dampener recently and found the rubber inlay to be in bad shape. The 273, 318, and 340 all got the same dampener made with a cast iron hub and an outer cast iron circle with a rubber layer between. According to this link, http://www.hbrepair.com/harmonic_balancer_001.htmthe purpose of a harmonic balancer or vibration dampener is to limit the amount of crankshaft twisting caused by power strokes. I found 2 vendors that will renew the rubber inlay: www.damperdoctor.comwww.hbrepair.com

Here's photos of my crank pulley, 3 grooves for a 340 with A/C, same pulley as a 318 with A/C. There are no visible markings or part number anywhere on the pulley.
There were also 2 groove and 1 groove crank pulleys for with power steering and without. 273, 318, and 340 shared the same 1 and 2 groove crank pulleys.
This front groove is cast iron with rubber inlay, and the back 2 are spun from sheet metal.

Jason, it looks like this one, an "L" in a circle with 3 hash marks Thanks Scott. Does it have the "teeth" on the washer face like the hemi solenoid nuts?
