does anyone know what size wrist pins were used in a 73 440 with a cast crank?

and whats the best way to clean a used vibration damper? can i sand blast it? or would it be a good idea to just get a new one?

 

are you referring to the harmonic balancer?

 

1.094 i beleive it is. you can sandblast it being carfull of the elastic. wire brush it would probly be better i think?

 

ok thanks i was thinking it was 1.094 for the press fit pins but wasnt sure.

i wanna try to reuse as much as posible in my rebuild but i want it to look good also and my balancer is all rusty. i have access to a sandblaster so ive been doing everything with it and i didnt know if it would hurt it.

thanks

 

I sand blasted mine. Sand just bounced off the rubber.

 

i just went ahead and sand blasted it. i didnt have any problems and it came out good.
