Harmonic Balancer

[McKenzieDave]

Do you have a breakdown of correct small block harmonic balancers?  Specifically for me 210hp 327 in 1969.  There are about 20 of them lying around here and I don't know which is which.  Thanks.  Dave

Dave:

I've got the same engine.  Attached pic shows the balancer.  As you can see, (if you look closely) the timing tab on the front cover extends out at least 1/2 the width to maybe as much as 2/3 the width of the balancer.  I didn't take a pic of the balance by itself prior to reinstalling.  I'll be glad to measure width and diameter if that would be helpful.

This balancer is original to the engine.

As a side note, I have seen earlier '60's vintage 327 balancers that are about 1/2 as wide as this one.  Those would not be the correct for this application.
