I've never had a motor with anything but a stock balancer on it. My motor is being finished up this week, and now im concerned my pulleys will not line up. Im currently running a 2 groove crank pulley, single groove alternator and power pump pulley. What do I need to do to make this set up work. Thanks 7366005-tn_155_5507.JPG (204 downloads)

You will probably want to start with a 69 - 71 hemi lower pulley and go from there, once you wake up after pricing them you'll see the ... another balancer ... option is the better choice . That said I had a fluidampner but it had a recessed face and worked with stock B/RB pulleys .

The newer FD #720311 appears to be recessed and may work with your existing pulleys. IIRC the hemi pulleys work with the non-recessed FD but don't quote me.

As stated, we do offer a newer design with a recessed face and should work with your pulley configuration. Since you have the old version, we are offering the opportunity to receive the new version at a discounted price. Please email me at ivan.snyder@fluidampr.com or call 716-592-1000 and ask for Ivan. The following is a customer drawing which gives key dimensions and will allow you to determine if it is correct for your application. http://i895.photobucket.com/albums/ac155/kalipbean/720311-C.jpg
