| 10051170 | 7.25" | 2º before crank keyway | GM/Fluidamper is a viscous fluid damper for internally balanced smallblocks. This damper is accepted by many racing associations and dampens vibrations at all RPM. It has timing mark from TDC to 50º. Weights 13.4 pounds. | |
| 10128489 | Gen. II LT1 dual mass damper; use with hub (PN 12553250). | |||
| 10225133 | LT5 damper | |||
| 12341632 | 6.25" | 2º before crank keyway | GM/Fluidamper weights 7.9 pounds and is for use on internally balanced engines. | |
| 14097258 | 6.75" | 10º before crank keyway | 1234190 | Used with ZZ3 350/345HP crate engine with one-piece rear seal. |
| 24502534 | 7" | 2º before crank keyway | GM/Performance Parts elastormer damper for internally balanced engines and standard size crank snout. This damper is tuned for high-RPM use (9000 RPM) and is similar to the ATI Super Damper. NASCAR approved and can be rebuilt by replacing the elastormer. | |
| 24502535 | 7" | 2º before crank keyway | GM/Perfomance Parts elastormer damper for internally balanced smallblock engines with aftermarket crankshaft snouts sized to big block Chevy diameter (1.598") and is similar to the ATI Super Damper and GM damper (PN 24502534). NASCAR approved and can be rebuilt by replacing the elastormer. | |
| Fluidamper
does have a viscous fluid 8" damper for externally balanced 400s
under Fluidampr (PN 712465).
Remember that if you are building a engine using a 400 crank and a 350 block to build the popular 383 combination, you must use a 400-style front vibration damper and a flywheel or flexplate for externally balanced 400 engines. The crankshaft/front damper retaining bolt (PN 3815933) is 7/16"-20 x 2 1/4. The correct flat washer to use with this bolt is (PN 14001829 or 14092217). Most race sanctioning bodies have banned the use of cast-iron production elastormer dampers on race engines for safety conciderations. You will need to use an SFI 18-1 approved specification damper such as the GM/Fluidampr or the ATI Super Damper types offered by GM/Performance Parts (PN 12402534 or 2450535). Gen. II engine use a dual-mass vibration damper that is unique. THis damper and hub does not mate the crank snout in the manner most Gen. I smallblock enthusiasts are used to and consequently it can not be interchanged to Gen. I engines. THe dual-mass damper has two independent inertia rings mounted on a common hub, wich enables it to work over a wide range f engine RPM than previous designs. Rather than have a separate pulley for a sepentine belt, this damper incorporates the belt ribs and grooves as part of the damper. All Gen. II engines are externally balanced. All Gen. III engines are internally balanced and use a uniwue vibration damper. |
