This is an eBay original damper. It took a lot of
degreasing to get it to this condition.

You can see
that the cracks have begun and the rubber is breaking down.

We'll fix
this hard to read condition as well.

This shows
just how deep the cracks can go. Oil and rubber like this
don't get along
after a lot of years and the accumulated stress of the damper
doing it's job hurts too.

This
was never going to be installed on my new engine in this
condition.

So Gary
says that it will be turned around in 24-48 hours. I said
OK.......we'll see.

Guess what?
He did turn it around in 30 hours after receipt of part and out
the door.
A beautiful
new bright red paint job after some additional
blasting at Damper Dudes and it's ready for the white paint in
the grooves.
I did put
three coats of clear over the white after it had dried for
several days

The seven (7) drilled indentations across the face are from
the complete engine balancing at Mason Machine.
This is the
fan eliminator kit to replace the shaft and fan blade.

You can see
these marks when the timing light beam hits them

The
eliminator in it's correct position.

And in
place on the newly rebuilt engine.

All lined
up and waiting for the radiator to be installed.
