Re: Multipoint EFI for my 1969 Restomod.

Thank you. I had delusions that there was a more cost effective source. Maybe I’ll stick with the old Iron.

Re: Multipoint EFI for my 1969 Restomod.

I am using, as noted in my OP but apparently not very clearly, the RPM Aluminum Toronado Intake. I will be welding in the bungs that come with the kit - I originally planned to use the Bosses cast into the Manifold, but they are vertically oriented and I need to angle the injectors at 30 from Verti...

Re: 1967 Toronado Harmonic Balancer Counterweight

I thought the same balancer fit all Olds V8s, weight differences were taken care of in the crank weights. Bruce Roe One would expect that. But if you look at the notes on the various supplier/vendor websites, they usually warn about rebalancing is required for the early 400 and 425 engine applicati...

Re: 1967 Toronado Harmonic Balancer Counterweight

I assume that shiny divot in the new balancer was drilled out by you. Do you just drill a little and weigh the piece, drill a little more and weigh it again, etc. until you remove the amount you want? How do you decide where to take the metal out? Sorry for all the questions. I've never done anythi...

Re: 1967 Toronado Harmonic Balancer Counterweight

There was only 1 weight provided, 516 g. So, I considered that this new counterbalance weight is designed to fit my 69 Olds Cutlass 350. I measured all three harmonic balancer dimensions, the 1969 350, 1967 425, and the new balancer. I took the ratio of the counterweight volumes of the 1969 350 harm...

Re: 1967 Toronado Harmonic Balancer Counterweight

Thank you for your experience. I will check fitment and let her rip. If I feel vibration I’ll take it off and adjust the weights.

I’ll post my experience.

Re: 1967 Toronado Harmonic Balancer Counterweight

Thank you for those contacts. Unfortunately I have already purchased the harmonic balancer and I'm not quite ready to consider it sunken cost. Does anyone one have experience, that they can share, in either using the non-425 harmonic balancer as-is or how they modified the counterweight to suite the...

1967 Toronado Harmonic Balancer Counterweight

Hello Everyone, I have purchased a Professional Products PowerForce Harmonic Dampers 80022 to replace my failing harmonic balancer on my 1967 Toronado. The old one has spun the outer ring (rendering the timing mark useless) and the rubber is cracked and rather wavy. The new harmonic balancer is link...

Re: 67 Toronado Glass (power windows)

I do not have the motors. I believe they can be found at FusickAutomotive. I bought some from them in the past (20 years ago) and they still work as new.
