Ämne: [Chrysler300] Harmonic Balancer Rebuild?
Anyone know who rebuilds the harmonic balancers and/or how much they
are?
Would like to have the one done from our '62 300, while the motor is
out.
Thanks,
Matt Allyn

Subject: 300 F Question
Listen up, you F owners! A question has arisen concerning the color of
the
kick panels in the front seat areas of your cars. Many (perhaps most) are
the tan color of the paint on the dash, but at least a few have shown up
with
the black / dark grey kick panels typical of the 300 G. If you have an F
with the dark gray kick panels (and they are original as far as you know)
would you forward to me the serial number of your car? We are trying to
associate the dark kick panels with some other factor, such as build date,
so
we can answer the question of the originality of these panels. Thanks in
advance. Ain't the listserver wonderful?

Subject: Camshaft durations
Hi all
Was talking about camshafts the other day with a good freind and
experienced race engine builder about camshaft specs. He enlightened me to
the fact, that by altering the valve lash by .001" of an inch on my 392, I
will alter the duration of the cam by 3 degrees. So in my case if I move
my valve lash clearance from say .012" to .013" I'm taking my 233 degree
duration cam down to 230. Or decrease the lash and go to a 236 duration.
He recommended a max of .003" alteration, but hey, that gives us 9 degrees
to play with either way when tuning the motor to how we want it. Many of
you on the list were probably already aware of this, but for those who
were not, like me, I thought it was kinda interesting. Worth keeping in
mind next time you adjust the valves......

HELP!!
My brother in law bought my 62 300 sport a few years ago and I checked
the shoes on the rear axle for him last week end and they need replaced.
NO ONE in this area has them or knows where we could find any. Short of
pulling the old ones and having them re-lined in Billings (he lives in
Miles City) I don't know what to do. Any one have a source I can get them
from? Thanks in advance. Joe Pierce Joliet, Montana.

Subject: Harmonic Balancer Rebuild?
Hi to all,
I have never had a balancer rebuilt - yet. But, the other day, I had a
413
engine at TDC on a stand in my shop, and decided to "test" some balancers
I
had removed from engines over the years. Result of testing 6 balancers :
two were accurate, two were off by ten degrees, one was off by 15
degrees,
and one was off by 30 degrees or so. So, it isn't much good using a
timing
light to tune your engine if the timing mark is off ! Suggest testing
your
balancers by placing engine at #1 TDC using a piston stop device ( one
can
easily be made by busting out the porcelain out of an old spark plug and
threading a bolt in the center of the remaining metal ) .
John
