Harmonic Balancer for 1975 L48
Does anyone know what size balancer is on a stock 1975 L48 with a "J" in the vin number? Mine is coming apart and I would like to go ahead and order one before I start taking it apart. Is there a certain brand that is better than another? Just looking to go back with a stock replacement as I will be building another engine in the near future. Thanks

I ended up ordering one from my local Autozone. Is it a good idea to go ahead and replace the front crank seal while I have the balancer off or don't worry with it if it hasn't been leaking?
Not looking forward to having to get the fan shroud back in position. I am almost tempted to go ahead and order the DeWitts radiator/dual fan combo I have been wanting.

I'd definitely replace the seal while things are apart. It's always a bummer to have to take things apart a second time. If you don't, it will probably start leaking about a week after you put it together.
