Refer to the Fake Canadian'* fiasco with the Harmonic Balancer dance.

Where did you get it from, and what'* the part number?

:?:

They swapped the old rings to the new HB? How about the offset? Tooth cut offset to the keyway?

That was a bad idea. Get an OEM unit on there. AC Delco.

First time I've seen this thread too. Shoot me.

You've made a lot of progress! But I'm wondering about this HB....I had a fiasco with getting the right part for mine. After only a couple seconds after startup I noticed something was wrong. Weights are different for every year.

Good luck figuring this out! I'll search for my thread...

FWIW...part numbers are in there somewhere.

EDIT: Actually, the part numbers in that thread don't include a 92....your would most likely be different from any of those stated.

Pete, your part numbers may not work for Peter. My 93 and 95 are different.

Yep, just edited my post. I thought the 92 part # was in that thread, but it wasn't.

Consider yourself shot!

so what your telling me is that not only are the rings in the back different but ther weighted differently aswell? so even if the rings was put in the new one and lined up perfect there would still be a problem?
