i have a fluiddampener on mine, it requires different pulleys,
the only pulleys i have found to fit this are march, be ready
to open your wallet.
i have seen the dampener you mentioned, thought it was 
supposed to take stock pulleys.
 
the hole in the waterpump is a different subject.
i know people who plug them, swearing there car runs
cooler.
i had a chunk of something blocking mine once, the car
was getting hot, so i took the thermostat out to test it.
i noticed the chunk of metal (a piece of casting?) sitting
in the hole, removed it and the car runs cool (as it did before)
proof, that blocking it won't help mine run cooler.

I sprung for one of those chrome plated fluid damper copies from 440 Source. 
I delt with Brandon who seems to know what he's talking about. Got it today. 
It weighs about 2 lbs more than a factory damper and about 1/2" thicker so I 
haven't tried the pulley line up. It's sfi approved so I hope it will be 
ok. I promptly scuffed it up and painted it turquoise. Also did the same with 
their aluminum water pump housing which I added a Milodon HV pump. Anyone 
have a good source for stainless heater hose nipples? 440 Source also has a 
used factory aluminum housing #2536767 that they say was used on the 65 S/S 
race hemi. I thought it was kinda cool, being so unique and all. I guess it 
would fit a RB motor They were asking 250.00. There's a photo of it on 
their site. Joe

Another question - looking down the thermostat neck, into the housing, is a 
1/4" or so threaded hole. My cast iron housings also have this. Is this a 
bypass of some type, or should it be plugged? Again with the Joe....;-D
