New Bolt for the end of the crankshaft for pully

I am taking off the stock fan and going electric. I will take off the pedestal that holds the stock fan. That means I need a shorter bolt that holds the pully on. It looks like 5/8 inch fine thread. Does anybody make one of these?
Or does it come with a kit for the pullys or dampers?

Would this set up work on the TR4?

Hi,

I wouldn't run the 4-cylinder without some dampening. The fan extension normally also provides dampening on the 4-cylinder and you might snap a crankshaft or damage a gearbox without some form of dampening.

What you need is this. If you want to order here in the U.S., British Frame & Engine sells it (in two versions, actually... one for <6000 rpm, the other for 6000> rpm). You can see the less expensive, <6000 version installed on my car, at the link below by my signature.

I haven't seen anyone offering a dampener for TR250/5/6, so I can only assume the 6-cylinder can get by without one, or perhaps the pulley has some dampening effect (it looks like it might).
