I am actually chief operating officer and one of the owners of Professional Products. I neglected to mention that in my first post.
The modification we have made does allow you to remove our pulley, which suits the '67 and earlier engines, and position your '68 and later pulleys over a centering boss and bolt your pulley to the damper. We currently just have factory prototypes of the new design. Production parts will be available for sale in about 90 days.
We are also looking into supplying a timing pointer with the damper that will be a universal model that will bolt to all FE engines and will be designed to match the diameter of our damper. Our damper is the same diameter (7.5") as the 427 FE high performance damper so for later engines with smaller diameter dampers, a different timing pointer is required.
It appears that Hawkrod, who contacted me, will be able to provide us with all of the info we need to firm up our revised design, which appears to be about 98% accurate the way it is. We just need to make a couple of minor adjustments and we can release it for production.
When we originally released the first design of our damper, we were relying on incorrect data supplied to us by a so-called FE expert. Our original damper worked fine on '67 and earlier vehicles, and other than the timing pointer issue, would also work on later vehicles as long as they only needed one accessory pulley. |
