There are many aftermarket dampers available. By Dave Shoe - 10/25/2001 7:06:35 PM; IP 12.2.11.131 Lots of times, aftermarket dampers don't have timing marks which match the pionter on your timing cover, but that's a minor issue. I haven't really studied aftermarket dampers much, though others have posted a bunch of info on the popular options. If your stock 1969 damper looks good, and since you're not building what looks like a 6000+ RPM terror, I'm not so sure you need to pounce on a performance damper right away. If you had a 1967-earlier 390 I would suggest a change, but the 1968-later damper does provide some good damping - though it'd be insufficient for sustained romps above 6000RPM. I don't have any details on racing dampers, but you might try the "search" button (keywords: damper or balancer or harmonic) in this forum to find some alternative brands, and the stories which are attached to them. It sounds like it's gonna be a fun ride when you get through with it. Shoe.

This thread, so far...
