ya, well...that changes things a little. understand i don't like factory rubber dampr's in the first place. you can spend a ton of time trying to find one in a "little" better shape than yours, but in the end...is it really?

hey ryan, what would you use in place of stock. does fluidyne or TCI make a damper for the LT5?

since we're on the subject, a customer recently dropped off a 316 cube Super Stock engine, it's on the left & the DRCE-2 i just finished up is on the right. the 316 regularly see's 10,000 RPM. so i get looking at this thing & notice something looking not right with the dampr. it's a TCI Rattler (SFI approved) but it's cracked clean accross in three places

. you wanna bet how ugly that would have been at 10,000 plus. not sure how good the pics will come accross so i marked two of the cracks with an "X". it's not a timing mark folks...it's a crack.

Yes there is an aftermarket piece, 6 month lead time and roughly 800 bucks.
