New from Stage 8 – harmonic balancer kits. The kits are geared toward keeping the harmonic balancer’s fastener from coming undone and causing catastrophic engine damage, and will work on most motors. See more details below.

Official Release:

Most performance enthusiasts know Stage 8 Locking Fasteners. Their zero-failure locking systems are so trusted, Kooks Headers and Exhaust now includes them in their exhaust systems.

But Stage 8 makes locking systems for much more than header and turbo applications.

An often overlooked part of an engine is the harmonic balancer. When the outer ring of a harmonic balancer slips from its normal position, a vibration results. This vibration may cause the fastener on the harmonic balancer to come loose and cause costly crankshaft damage.

Stage 8 Locking harmonic balancer bolts are easy to use and are real assurance against harmonic balancer failure due to loosening fasteners.

The unique and functional design is just four pieces: a grooved bolt (grade 8 steel), a retaining washer, a locking retainer and a snap ring.

Stage 8 harmonic balancer bolt kits are available for most engines. For more information go to http://stage8.com/perfauto.html and search by platform or call 415-485-5340.

• Easy to use and protect against harmonic balancer failure
