    In my last 20 years as an NHRA techinspector, I saw many Fluidampers used on drag race motors. I'd use the largest diameter unit I could bolt on the crank, like the 800111 with eccentric weight to match up with the eccentric weight on the flexplate/flywheel.

    The other option is to use a factory OEM unit that has been rebuilt. Damper Doctor disassembles OEM units and uses new elastomeric material between the hub and the inertia ring, clocked properly for precision ignition timing and pressed together under tremendous hydraulic pressure. Here's their phone number, call 'em up and talk with them about availability and price.
