No-Bolt SBC Vibration Damper Falls Off

Sunday, January 17, 2010

Yep, pretty much what title says. Seems like some people never have a problem, even with high RPM 327s, and others have had it happen multiple times. I figure the extra load of the supercharger may have had something to do with it. Luckily, I was only a block or so from home and it wasnt spinning at a higher RPM!

Yep, there it is, laying on the steering linkage.

Drilling and tapping the crank for a bolt. This cost less than $20 to do. I had to buy the correct size drill bit, tap and bolt.

Bolted on securely. I hit it with some Loctite, because I dont want it coming off again accidently
