That does look like a nifty solution. Can you repeat the source? The website
didn't make to my email.

  I am converting my TR3 to an electric fan.  I have removed the dog bolt and
  fan extension and am wondering about a possible upgrade.  Several members
have
  written to say they installed a harmonic balancer (in place of their fan
  extension?)
     Let me ask:  Just what is  a harmonic balancer?  Several years ago, I
  instructed the engine shop to "balance" my motor during it's rebuild???
My
  guess is that it counterbalances some sort of wobble and is a step beyond
  'balancing an engine during rebuild.'  I am also guessing it can be added
(to
  the hub?) at a later time.
     For the current time, I think a big, heavy-duty, and exactly centered
  washer will suffice.
  Thanks,
