Kind of steep at over $200. But its out there. Also -- his new website is much better than the one 3 years ago. He seems to also have cracked the problem with TDC. -----Original Message----- From: mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of David Hermanns Sent: Monday, October 16, 2006 9:26 PM To: mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: RE: IML: crankshaft pulley repair Try www.damperdoctor.com I know, the name sounds pretty cheesy. But I had a telephone conversation with the fellow and I subsequently had my damper rebuilt by him for my truck engine. It was very nice in terms of appearance and has done well for 3 years and counting... You WILL have to find TDC on your own after a rebuild in all likelihood, but I am sure that someone can give advice on that as well.... Later.... -----Original Message----- From: mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:mailing-list-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Rob van der Es Sent: Monday, October 16, 2006 10:03 AM To: mailing-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: IML: crankshaft pulley repair Hi Dave, Ofcourse I prefer a new damper but I haven't found one yet that is available for my engine.. It is an 413 RB of 1960, any ideas? Most suppliers go back to 1966 and then they said that it won't work for older engines...
