Thanks for the offer but I live in Southern Calif. I ended up making a tool out of a threaded rod with some nuts and a large washer. Thanks

I'll check it out. Thanks.

I'll see if I can find the tool. I have a lot of my father in-laws tools. He had an auto repair shop. Thanks

I wasn't able to examine the harmonic balancer while it was on the car so I decided to remove it. It looks like the rubber is starting to break down. I had the engine rebuilt about 4 yrs ago. It looks like they used the old balancer. Is it better to have it rebuilt or replace it? Has anyone...

I had talked to the builder while it was being built. He told me that he had forgotten that the 360 was externally balanced until one of his guys reminded him.

I don't drive the car much and when I do, I rarely drive over 55 mph. I noticed the vibration at 60 mph +. I adjusted the exhaust because the pipes were hitting the floor, replaced the trans mount first (it was broken), then the motor mounts. The things that I replaced within the last year, were...

I used the ultra copper silicon, it worked like a charm. Thanks

Can anyone recommend a harmonic balancer for a 1978 360 engine. I have a vibration in park and neutral, and at at about 3000 rpm. The motor and trans mounts have just been replaced (quality parts) The torque converter weights are in place. The engine was rebuilt about 3 yrs ago and the crank...

Are you talking about a little RTV?

Thanks. I heard sometimes the shaft on the gear and/or housing wears out.

Is Brewers a transmission shop? I'm not familiar with them. Thanks

Can anyone recommend a good quality seal for the speedometer shaft and housing. I bought a couple online, they only last a few months. Thanks
