Jim,
Are you talking about Rick Patton's Fan Eliminator Kit
(http://www.pattonmachine.com/FanEliminator.htm)
If so, I installed his kit a few years ago
(http://tr6.danielsonfamily.org/Fan_Eliminator.htm) and it's a great way to
remove 6 pounds 6 ounces of rotating mass and replace it with just 8 ounces.
As a result you should also see a slight horsepower increase.

Subject: [6pack] Engine Front Damper Question
Team:
There is a kit that allows you to remove the front hub (fan connects to it)
that connects to the harmonic dampener if using an electric fan. The kit
includes a new bolt and small round "whosey watchit" to attach to the
harmonic dampener. Is the front hub needed for additional dampening or is it
ok to remove and install this kit? I had heard that the extra hub was
needed to help dampen the crank. My engine is tweaked but I never balanced
the crank.
Thanks in advance,
