ATI Damper - 6.78in - Alum - 6/4 Grv - 10 Per UD - LS3 Camaro - 10-15 - Gen 3 Vortec Truck - LS

In this kit, you get the ATI 918629 crankshaft damper, designed for LS3 Camaro models from 2010-2015 and Gen 3 Vortec Truck engines. This part is crucial for managing torsional vibrations in your engine's crankshaft, which can otherwise lead to premature wear and potential damage over time. By absorbing these vibrations, the damper helps protect your engine's internal components and ensures smoother operation, especially in performance applications where engine stress is higher.

This damper is constructed from aluminum for a good balance of strength and weight. It features a 6.78-inch diameter and is configured with 6 grooves for the primary belt and 4 grooves for an accessory belt, offering flexibility for various setups. The design includes 10 degrees of Underdrive (UD) for the accessory drive, which can help reduce parasitic drag on the engine, potentially freeing up a bit of horsepower and reducing accessory load. ATI is well-known for making robust components for demanding engine builds, and this damper is built to handle the stresses of performance LS engines.

When installing this damper, remember that it's a critical component for engine longevity, especially on modified or high-revving LS engines. Ensure you have the proper tools to remove the old damper and install the new one securely. It's always a good idea to consult the manufacturer's installation instructions for specific details regarding torque specifications and any recommended procedures to ensure a safe and effective installation.
