Just flywheel effect, is needed. A bit of weight at the very edge of the
disc.
A few small weights tucked right inside the flange where the ring
gear sits might be all you need. I added 8 short TIG beads between the ring gear
and that flange, because a missed shift without a rev limiter shucks off the
ring gear, and just about cuts the bell housing into two pieces. Not likely
with a prop installed, but you can bolt on stacks of washers to run for a few
seconds to see if that is a cure, if you would rather not weld on the flex
plate.
Hi
Lynn,
I'd have to look
at it in person, but it appears from pics that I could easily add several
large washers, plus the longer bolts that would be required, to each of the
4 holes that bolt the flexplate to the drive dampener plate. This is
pretty close to the outside of the flexplate, so it's probably worth a
try. I'll make a note to measure the bolts, and look at the space
available, next time I'm by the hanger.
Thanks,
