Message	: This is from fisherconcepts.com in their FAQ section. It describes what a harmonic dampener is for. : "A. What is crankshaft torsional vibration? : Every time the engine fires it makes the crankshaft twist as well as spin. After every twist the crank rebounds. This twist/rebound cycle is known as torsional vibration. If not dampned, torsional vibration can cause rapid bearing and crank journal wear, leading also to broken crankshafts and other problems." : The VG uses a forged crank and it is very strong, BUT, connecting rod bearings take a beating if tortional vibration is not damped. : : : I know that for each pound off the crank it's somewhere around 2.5 hp. Stock pulley is 14 lbs? UD is 4 lbs or so? So what is that around 25hp? --wes "Oh,it's an auto" "Opinions expressed are my own....if you don't like them.....tough shit!!!" ----Wesley J.
