The engine in my '59 is a 350 with a mild roller cam. The balancer has 3 lines cut across it. The first line is TDC and stamped "0". About 2" further around is a second line stamped "E", then about another inch away is a third line stamped "4". Any guesses as to what the "E" and the "4" stand for? Thanks again. Pat G.

Re: 3 lines on my balancer?
if the 2" line is on the advance side of the damper i would guess it is for power timing the engine -
Re: 3 lines on my balancer?
Just guessing, but it may be far enough that the second line "E" is really a "3" for 30 degrees and the third being "4" is for 40 degrees.
This lets someone use the stock timing tab and regular timing light see the timing in the 28-50 degree range, depending on the tab, so they can check full advance.Comment
