Engine has been rebuilt by a cheap house back in the day, had a reman tag on it.
It'd be sad that if it's always had a cast crack in it and in 21 years of ownership I didn't realize it.
This would be the first one I've mismatched, do they normally act up in only 1 rpm range?


If your engine is marked "E"it's a 69 not a 71. 71 would be marked "G". All 69s are internally balanced.

No, e for cast crank, like later 440's were stamped. It's a 71 date engine by casting date

Also found a site that said take rpm/60=Hertz, don't need a sirometer.
2700rpm is about the worst spot. 45hz. Same site said for internal engine stuff take second order so 90hz. What I can't find is something that says what materials or component matches that frequency.

Prefix "E" would be for the date (1969 I think)/ suffix "E" would denote a cast crank (originally & likely still) eng.

Once you figure out your Hz, how do you figure out if it's a 1st or 2nd order harmonic? And then what is a guide for where to look at in/on the engine? I'm trying to read up, but it's almost over my head

I'm in that exact spot, I couldn't find any more info. the one site I found said that external stuff was 1st order, internal is 2nd order. I'm 99% sure it's not an accessory or physical interface with the chassis or something, so I went with 2nd order.

You can eliminate all the external accessories by removing all the belts. A few minutes without the waterpump turning won't be the end of the world and it will eliminate the one big accessory, the cooling fan.

How's the crank endplay?
