    I wanted the #70002 8" Star street damper for $36.99 . It's made out of Nodular Iron and safe to 6500 RPM . The add said Limited Quantities . They had none . They did have the OEM Replacement Type #6511 for $40.99 . Check out page #24 Star Performance I passed on it . I may go with the Pioneer Brand . But I did also need rockers And the Camshaft well I just had to

    One thing to remember is that cheaper is not really better. Cheaper in price means you are paying cheaper in quality. You can find the cheapest "damper" but dont be mad when the thing flys off at idle or above.
    Friends dont let friends drive fords!

    This is why I passed on the import OEM type . But they do have many . And they have a 6" Claimer Balancer $42.99 . You can find good budget parts . Some Times you get a junk part . But when guys here tell each other about good part deals . That is always a very good thing .I also look for good used high end parts for budget builds . Two of my SB Chevys will be built with good budget parts . I have a 406 that will get the high dollar stuff .
