Re: Ford 390 FE help
Thanks Tony, I think I've got it now. Not sure why the balancer/pointer where off 8degs (balancer problem?) but I redrilled the mounting holes for the pointer and its good now. How's your dad doing? Robbie

Re: Ford 390 FE help
I suspect the balancer is off. We have used a timing tape to fix that on ocassion. They are not expensive an we keep em on the shelf. Sometimes balanacers are mis marked, and others the pointer is tweaked.
Dad is doing pretty decent all things considered. Now its all about the therapy. |

Re: Ford 390 FE help
If it is a stock Ford unit it very common for the outer ring to slip, there is a very good company called Damper Dudes in Calif that rebuilds stock units.
