==Dampers/balancers== ===SBC=== The earliest SBC 265 dampers had a riveted on crank pulley (red arrow) attached to a steel hub, as shown below. {| |[[File:Sbc 265 damper.jpg|thumb|left|500px|SBC 265 damper hub with attached pulley, front]] |[[File:Sbc 265 damper2.jpg|thumb|left|500px|SBC 265 damper hub, back]] |} On other SBC engines, including internally balanced stroker engines, the dampers are neutral balanced. The differences will be in the location of the TDC line, weight, thickness and diameter of the dampers. On the 400 SBC and externally balanced stroker engines, an OEM damper will have a scalloped portion to the outer ring which is easily seen. Aftermarket dampers usually use a bolted on counterweight, which is also usually easily seen. Not as easily seen is the gap or void in the SBC 400 main bulkhead webbing.
