It appears that no one has one. I've been told, twice now, that if the engine is balanced I really do not need the damper only a pulley. Opinions please....

If you have one of the new Smiths tachs, it may have a large rubber plug in the back, behind which is a set of dip switches. You will probably have to call...

I already have the Painless fuse box and I agree that it is a useful item, do you know of an easy way to relabel the circuits? Also what about the relay...
Best to put all the relays in one place. The Painless box has mounts at the ends for additional relays, or you can get a relay rail from Painless to mount the...
