Another BBC Motor??? Dampers
Have another engine question – Not to make this to long of post but the motor I have appears to be a 468 with an aftermarket forged crank and H-Beam rods. When I started to tear the truck down and I removed the flywheel I noticed it had no external weight on it like a normal 454, once I found out that it had a aftermarket crank I assumed this was OK it was just an internally balanced assembly (I am only assuming this as I really don’t know how to tell???? The front damper looked weird to me also, but I just figured it was a smaller aftermarket damper BUT a buddy was over the other night and started looking at it and said it was just a stock damper that someone took the outer portion off of. The damper has no timing marks on the outside and also has no external weight?? He stated I need to get a new damper. Would I get a damper for an externally balanced motor? Or does it even matter???
I will post pics of the damper tonight when I get back to my home computer but any additional help before then would be great
Thanks guys
