Title: Source for a reduced diameter crank dampener and pulley?
Post by: Richard/SIA on July 07, 2014, 01:34:35 AM
"Trick-6" GT-6 with Buick V6 and T5.

I need to locate a reduced diameter crank dampener and pulley for a Buick 225 V6.
The 225 V6 is a development of the BOP 215 V8, so many parts interchange.
There might be a dampener balance issue with the "Odd-Fire" 225, if I have to I can use a 231 that I have but I really want this 225.
May also go with a flat of cog belt.
Trying to clear the steering rack with the engine set back and down.

Suggestions?

Many folks-here have moved/changed their rack unit. Guys like Jim Stabe and others,(search) ? If you cancel the bump steer, what's the harm ? The even fire V6 will be smoother, and likely make more power ?  Cheers, roverman.
