[Fot] [6pack] Aftermarket damper for TR6

[Scott Janzen]

My GT6 has an ATI damper that Randy Lamp adapted to my car, originally 
designed for a Ford straight six motor.  Runs great and smooth.  I have a 
Jones Racing toothed belt pulley bolted on the front that drives the WP and 
alternator.   It is a snug fit in the GT6 - not much clearance to radiator 
and offset electric fan.
