Harmonic Balancer and Pulleys

After reading my "How To" manual on rebuilding the motor, I realised that I should have fitted the harmonic balancer to ensure the timing case was centrally located on the hub. So off with the water pump, off with the timing cover.

The harmonic balance, which was balanced at REFLEX along with the rest of the motor was still in a poor state in a box on the floor. You can see it circled on the floor.

The next move was to dismantle all the pulleys of the Harmonic Balancer, separate all the aluminium spacers and clean everything up. I sand blasted the pulleys and the balancer and gave the aluminium spacers a run on the polishing wheel. The balancer and pulley wheels where painted in the red paint and for something different, I painted the the bolts in gloss black enamel.

Nice and clean. It almost looks a bit over the top as every harmonic balancer I've seen has been a crusty brown colour.
