The cracking alot of people are led to believe is more down to harmonics than anything else any way..

The reason im using one is because since weve seen 600+lb ft of torque we have experienced the rear main and big end bearings bronzing to the left side so just trying to stop things moving around as much..

This will prove to me after a good few outings if it stops that..

Im sure rod has his own reasons why he is using one as well as wanting a dry sump kit??

Also this is a quarter of the price of the jg one so if all works well a bargain,as said though as long as it slows the bronzing of my shells so quick then job done!!



cheers danny
its not torque thats been breaking it its vibration, must be something in the 2.2 set up
as when it was first used it would turn the twim aux belts inside out and throw them off,, even took out dry sump belt!
went to multi v that cured the belt prblem but still has vibration

maybe harmonic balancer would cure it
