Cool! When can you fly out?
I'll have to head back to your thread and reread, but Chas's aluminum dampner or damper could be the ticket. I have a Professional Products, I think, which I believe Brent said was fine for non-racing apps. Had I the presence of mind at the time of my engine build, I would have happily paid a few hundred $$ more for an upgrade. There were many other places I could have cut corners, but didn't.
While I understand that the Ersons are great, I know I have a set, if something is discontinued and is a good part that I may need in the future, my first reaction and/or tendency is to try and hoard a remaining set "just for giggles."
I actually considered buying a new SOHC front cover newly made by Robert Pond not too long ago, based on the hope and prayer that I'll get a chance to build a Cammer someday. I didn't though. Sound reasoning must have come over me.
