I am seriously sick of all this sh!t. I have posted numbers, rpm limits, every bit of info that someone would need (if they could understand it). I work at a company that produces the TVD for the car we love so much. I collect the data that is used to produce the tuning set that Ford uses to determine what freq they want to kill. Use whatever TVD you want to use. It is your car and you seem to know more about the auto industry than I do. This board is being consumed by know-it-all's......peace.
p.s. turn off that long assed sig.
Geez. I hope I didn't send you over the edge with my last post. I'm not intending to "school the teacher" as it were. My aim was to maybe shed a little more light on the particular part in question [the Fisher] since a few people seem a little in the dark on it still. Sorry if I've beat a dead horse here Judge.
Now, if you're not too sore at me, maybe you could help me understand something a little better?
If for instance I were to build a 3L. Let's assume the stock damper is doing a excellent job of cancelling harmonic vibrations. If I invested in new forged pistons,new wrist pins, and forged rods, would the stock damper still be "tuned" properly with the changes to reciprocating part densities, and overall weights? What about if I changed a rotational piece, such as lighter flywheel?
I'm sorry if this is all redundant to you, but I'm trying to understand if the undesireable frequencies are more a function of inherent weights, or more of dimentions. ie. The cranks overall length, and length of it's throws, counter weights. Rod center to center length etc.
