The info I obtained about the three series of Perkins was from a Sherry Schaefer article on 1850s' in her Oliver Heritage magazine a couple years back. This 2" collar I speak of on my original is stepped down in two sizes being about 3" outer diameter nearest the pulley, 1" long and reduced to about 2 1/4" OD, 1" long. The smaller diameter part has the splines made into it. The collar on the new part they sent me is only 3/4" long, 2 1/4" OD which means it will not reach the crank. The end of the crank is too far inside the front motor mount and needs that 2" of collar to keep the pulley from rubbing the motor mount. Surely I'm not the only one that has ever run into this. I also do not know anything about a liquid filled dampner. My original pulley has a round, appears to be heavy steel, not cast flywheel type weight bolted to it by nine 5/16 bolts. No liquid or rubber involved in that design as far as I can tell. There are no numbers stamped into this pulley, weight or the two metal rings that bolt the two together with. [Reply]   [No Email]
