I'm upgrading my 83 300 to serpentine belt setup. Is there any difference in harmonic balancers? Other than the obvious difference, will the serpentine setup just bolt on? I have a 92 parts truck with everything I should need.

 

I would use a new balancer, but that's just me.

 

No ****. That wasn't the question.

 

Then get the new one and compare to the old.

 

I guess it's a hard question to answer.

 

But not as hard as using the Search Forum feature...

 

Pic: Harmonic balancer is basic Ford part number 6312. Notice what it says for 1987/89 (E7TZ-6312-A):

 

Mr. Number Dummy, I appreciate your response. If I'm reading that wrong please correct me, but it appears they're all the same?

I'm not asking you, rbtom.

There are THREE different part numbers: C5TZ-6312-L .. E3TZ-6312-E .. E7TZ-6312-A

1987/89 (E7TZ-6312-A) is different than the others, due to the serpentine belt system.

 

Then be constructive, or stay off my posts.

 

Thanks NumberDummy, I was looking at your first post after I said that and realized they were different.
Thanks again!

 

What *exactly* did you not understand about what I said?
