Off balance crankers...
I'll second the ATI unit.? After breaking a crank and the front main cap on the
second motor in short sequence when I used a certain commercially available
dampner on my TR4, I had ATI build one that is definitely a bit of a "tight"
fit on the snout.? I measured everything and sent them the specs and they made
one to fit my design...a bit pricey but way better than "broken bits"
Now where did I put that harmonica....

The good news about the ATI dampner is you measure your snout and they make
the piece that goes on it to "fit". Fit means a little under so you have
to warm it before you can press it on.
