Hi oc,
I believe the original harmonic damper used on 68 327/300 engines was 6" in diameter and 1-1/4" thick.
I believe the damper surface typically has one line scribed into it to indicate tdc.
Regards,
Alan

update damper size
found on the net mathematics for sizing you damper. If you need a size for timing tape. measure circumference of your damper . Mine was a little over 21 inches. So I multiplied 6.75 x 3.1416 =21.2. So my damper is 6.75 inches .Many chevy damper were different sizes from 5.75 to 8.0 . 3.1416 is the key to finding the size.
