Harmonic Dampener Install

One other trick that I do.......actually learned it from a Chevy guy. I hone the inside of the balancer snout with a brake hone to relieve some of the press fit there. It's just not necessary that the balancer fit so damned tight. The stock ones don't fit that tight. Makes is a lot easier to install. My Chevy friend hones until his balancers slip on by hand, but I think he is making a mistake going that far.
Agree, my aftermarket balancer was real tight, homed it a bit to make installation easier.
