Professional products balancer: which weight for magnum
I have searched a bunch, even reached out to professional products and couldn’t get an answer. I am using an LA front cover and v belts, 99 5.9 mag, this is the #80012 balancer recommended on magnumswap.com but the only section in the instructions for using it on a 360 says this:
360 externally balanced 1993-97 engines with cast crank. Use supplied counterweight #91013. Will not work with 1993-97 Magnum 5.9L engine.
Seems like people have used this on their magnums but with which weight of the 3? Isn’t the only 360 engine 93-97 a mag?
The rest of the instructions are as follows:
Powerforce Street Dampers
- Chrysler/Mopar
Note: Professional Products offers one damper model that can be used without a counterweight for internally balanced engines. Or, use one of three supplied counterweights for other engines. Dampers #80012 and #90012 will fit the following applications:
- All internally balanced 318 V8 standard and Magnum, all internally balanced 273 and 340 engines with forged cranks. No counterweight is used with any of the above applications.
- 340 externally balanced 1972-73 engines with cast crank. Use supplied counterweight #91014.
- 360 externally balanced 1993-97 engines with cast crank. Use supplied counterweight #91013. Will not work with 1993-97 Magnum 5.9L engine.
- 360 externally balanced 1971-92 engines with cast crank. Use supplied counterweight #91012.
