What is the correct damper for the 67 500? I have one with numbers on the top D5TE-DA, is this correct? If not what do I look for? Thanks

D5 indicates 1975 and I believe TE would indicate truck but not positive about that?

If it starts it's streetable.
Overkill is just enough.

C5TE-DA is not even close IMO.  C6AE-A is the assemblyline part. Cobra Automotive made a repro up that is close.  https://store.cobraautomotive.com/1967-ford-428-police-interceptor-shelby-gt500-harmonic-balancer-c6ae-6312-a/

Correct part # C6AE=6316-A? or 6312-A

The part is C6AE-6316-A. The 6312 must be a typo because the 6316 is the part of most balancers base part number.

Hi Craig, I had an original damper for our GT500 restored by The Damper Doctor. A guy named John Wyss in Redding, CA.

      This was back in 2019 and I am still very happy with their work. So at least one place for you to consider.
