Question for the brain trust.
Is the factory balance of the fan 'good ' or should it be rebalance on a rebuild? Thanks in advance for your suggestions. oh is so, where in the La area to do that? |

Peter, if you're taking it apart (to clean, blast, paint, etc.), make note of where the factory installed balance weight is on the pulley in relation to the timing notch in the cast fan part. It should go back together in the same position to avoid a big rebalance job (ask me how I know) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Have the whole rotating system balanced (crank, flywheel with clutch and pressure plate, and the fan/pulley all attached). Have the shop balance your pistons and rods as well. You'll be glad you did in case you ever over-rev the motor (IMG:style_emoticons/default/shades.gif) Hi Mike. |
