    Size of woodruff key on Crankshaft?

    Oh, also, while we're at it. Where can I get the seal, bolt and washer. They all went flying!!! The harmonic balancer got wedged in the radiator and tangled in all the belts (thank god) so I still have it. Thanks for your help!

    Size of woodruff key on Crankshaft?

    I will have to re-cut the woodruff key seat into the crankshaft, it got all torn up and I am filling the old one. Any ideas how I can find out the size? The old seat is totally ruined.

    belt drive came out of front of engine

    Thanks for the info. What am I looking at price wise for the new balancer and the hold down bolt? What is expected in terms of labour? I just dropped a ton of money on a new starter and try to do this on the cheap/myself. Thanks
