Default Steetdamper?

Going to install a streetdamper fluidampr. on my street engine. Since I'm changing water pump will also change the fluidampr.
Anyone done this?
My vette now has 87k miles. Thought it would make it last longer?

What sort of difference have you noticed, does it spin up quicker, or is it smoother or what? Why should anyone get one? :confused:

Harmonic balancers are there for your bearing life. That's it. They won't necessarily make you any faster.


As the rubber in the stock version gets old, it gets hard. Result, less vibration dampening, more bearing wear. Does it really matter,.... depends.
