My 250 6 cylinder I put in my 66 c20 has a harmonic balancer with about an inch of side to side play in it. I don't imagine this is normal. What would cause this problem?
Also, I have access to a 292 6 harmonic balancer. Would it work on the 250? Thanks!

I have a used balancer on it now and there isn't as much play, so I'll be in a little better shape, but I think I am going to go with a 292 engine in the near future. Thanks for the input!
