 :thumbsup:  Sounds like you're good to go then.  I just got worried when I didn't see the big weight on the balancer.

Looking back over the pic and comparing.  It appears to be a Professional Products brand damper.  Looks to have different weights that interchange for whichever motor you are using.

I looked for Bullitt's pic but did not see anything but the area above the rear end housing?? :dunno:

I know he posted pictures of it.  They must be in his restoration thread.

Or unlucky 13?   However you want to look at it.   :smilielol:


Cragar S/S's with polyglas or 15" Magnums with polyglas?  What do you think?   Kind of kicking myself now for ordering the 11.75 brake kit that will force me to use 15" wheels.   If I had known it was going to be such a loose based factory look I would have stayed with the factory size rotors, not installed subframe connectors and would not have gone with the 3 point front seat belts.  That might all take away from the overall car in some peoples opinion.  :horse:  I put the 3 point seat belts in my wifes Duster and really like them better than the lap belts.

 If you still have a full side view of the car, please post it!  I never liked Cragar SS's until I saw them with Polyglas tires.  They may the wheels look right.  If you play with the photo settings a bit you can almost see the day 2 look to perfection!

Looking good! :thumbsup:  I like the front seat belts combined lap and shoulder belt it looks right, not out of place. Who's is it and do you like it and how was the install? Thanks Jim

I decided to go with the 3 point belts from classic industries.  They may not look "right" but I just feel like it may help in the event we need them.   I hope never to test them but I just felt it was a better option since I am not going 100% OEM.

Yup I know what you mean about not having to test them. I personally like the way yours look, plus the convenience of a modern car just having to  grab one belt. Thanks for the info, your doing a great job, hope mine comes out 1/2 as good. Jim
