Thats not my damper. I just used to stock damper provided with my RD-1B. It is simply bolted to my aftermarket flywheel with the RD-1B provided bolts. The holes in the fly wheel were put there by a machine shop, and the rubber dampers I have also been replaced with home-made silicone dampers cut from silicone sheet. The silicone lasts longer and is somewhat stiffer than the rubber, everything seems to be holding up well.

Not sure where the one in the picture is from. Perhaps Tracy's modification?

Hi All hope you are well.
Can somebody help me on pictures how the damper plate is “locked” with the damper rubbers to the flexplate or after market light weight fly wheel.

I have a picture included of what i believe was Dave Leonard’s damper

Maybe an exploded view of the rubbers and hardware bolts and how it fits will help.
Saw that in 2019 a couple of guys made a group buy on the damper rubbers.
Maybe you have a part number too ?

Thanks Le Roux
