Dynamic dampening front pulley

Isn't the real cost of the pulley $476.21?

When you send Murray a paypal payment of $330 doesn't PayPal convert the currency and deduct $476.21 from your account?

I paid $300 total for mine a couple of years ago. Murray has one on eBay for $270 + shipping. Paypal doesn't add to the total price. I assume Murray has included the Paypal fee in his price? Certainly not #146.21?


If you are concerned about PayPal, pay him with a Credit Card.

You don't have to change belts using the Murray Horn Dampener. Your standard wide/length belt will work. You will need to carry a jog belt while you are traveling because you can't get a standard belt between the front cross member and the dampener.

Carl, what belt are you using? And are you using a gen or alt?

1) I don't have mine all back together yet, so things might change.
2) I have an alternator, but I also have A/C, so the belt I had is NAPA 25-22495
3) I bought a new one and it fits just fine with the engine in place
4) Based on what Y Block has said, I ordered the link belt from Restoration Supply. It will also go on assembled.
5) I will probably stick with the link belt, but carry the new NAPA belt as a spare, along with extra links if the need arises.
 
Carl, that's funny. You are from Alaska and have AC. :)

To me that would be like the guy installing a heater that drives in death valley.:eek:
 
I didn't need to worry about the Paypal $476.21 charge for the balancer. My price on the invoice for the balancer was $330, and that included shipping.

The balancer fit great.

A standard NAPA B41, 44" x 21/32 belt was installed. It was not easy. I had to grease the front shackles and beat the belt under the balancer.

I am using a Powermaster 6 volt alternator, that is why I need a 44" belt.

All of our modern cars have A/C, so why not our A's? Actually there are 2 pickups in our club that have A/C.

I don't see a Fuidampr for the Model A engine. Any further information?
Thanks

I think Pete mentioned he uses a BBC damper on his race engines. Fluiddamper does not offer a damper for the Model A.

The only person that makes a Harmonic Balancer for the Model A is Murray Horn (as far as I know??)

A/C is useful for more than cooling, It helps keep dust and diesel fumes out of the cab of my F-150 also. Keeps the co-pilot happy.

OK, so if I want to use one of these I need to cut the crossmember, or not? Forget about the belt, I can buy either one I need. I want to know about the crossmember frame.
 
You don't touch the crossmember. You can use the same belt you used with the standard pully. The clearance between the installed pulley and the crossmember is tight and it's nearly impossible to install the standard belt without raising the engine. That's why you need to carry a link belt when you travel.

2X what AL in NY said...

No frame cutting, link belt optional.

Let me rephrase that. I always have to worry about price.

I only said i didn't need to worry about the $330 price because I thought after my PayPal transaction to Murray that they charged me $476.21 for the pulley and I was worried about that transaction.
