yes, this GM OEM is ACDelco, balancer will be new of course.
About crank pulley i asked where to find it and is used (and straight of course) will be OK.
Old thread but still relevant (like most here).
Today i saw that crank pulley on my ´86 M1009 is wobbling ca 1.5mm. So time to change it and when already there, also harmonic balancer. 63k miles and sure it looks original.
Is this GM OEM kosher...

Well, i may be wrong, but i always did coolant change this way:
drain from radiator (easiest to remove lower hose,if you have large pan);
if engine have drain plugs, from there too;
fill system with destilled water, run some 5 minutes;
drain again;
fill with proper coolant mix.

Thanks!
OK, finally got tach and installed. You guys are right - at 110kmh (68mph) by GPS rpm-s are ca. 2150. Noise is high but seems that this can be reduced with hood and firewall insulation. And my old BFG KO-s are not quietest tires also.
Tried to swap air filter opening to drivers side, as...
I do not doubt your words. Lets see, what tach shows when it arrives. To my ear engine rpm´s are too high, bad ears probably.
At the same time i located ´91 small Blazer (gas engine, TH700 and 4WD, so NP241?). Cheap, as it is rust bucket. So if needed, i have tranny and transfer case.
And...
Thanks! Already sent order email - TinyTach has dealer in France, so should arrive pretty quick. I´d like some day to find tach what fits to cluster...
Is this correct one?
Hey, why so grumpy? I am grateful for the suggestions, they are big help and valuable information for me. That i´m not concerned about hills or loads, well this is my problem. Another problem is, that we dont have here partsyards as you have there and to find parts for TH700 swap is almost...
