    Here is an Ebay auction for a used C5OE Hipo harmonic balancer by Ebay member "ollyroge" with a starting bid of $0.99:

    Original Ford 289 Hi-Po harmonic balancer Shelby GT350 Cobra. Here IS an original 289 Hi-Po balancer that is in nice shape. This is the variation with the C5OE Ford part number. This was removed from an original 65 Shelby GT350 but would be correct for any 289 Hi-Po engine including Shelby Mustangs. It is in very nice shape with the seal surface showing hardly any wear . Nice clear timing marks and rubber that is not completely dried out . No extra holes drilled for strange balancing . The repro balancers are available but do not carry a Ford logo or part number on them

    Here is your chance to get an original balancer that has not been all beaten up. This balancer would be correct for all 65-67 Shelby GT350’s and any other 289 Hi-Po powered vehicle including 289 Cobras. Another one this nice will not come along for some time if you need this for your K code car don’t pass it up! Winner pays actual shipping charges. Good luck bidding !

    I will be replacing the head gaskets on my original and unmodified motor this spring. Had one fail externally (nothing in the oil) Any recommendations on a book gasket to use an/or anytime doing the job? I have done them before but never on a K motor. Thanks!

    Jack

    I have had good luck with both FelPro and Victor gaskets. Of course Ford gaskets are also good but tough to find and generally more expensive these days. The K engine is not any more difficult to work with than most other American 8 cylinder engines. The only main difference being mechanical compared to hydraulic lifters.

    Here is an Ebay auction for a used C8ZE replacement Hipo harmonic balancer by Ebay member "junkrat1" with a starting bid of $.99:

    1965-1968 OEM FORD 289-302-351W HP (THICK) Balancer.. Condition is Used. I believe this is a replacement balancer for the SB Ford Hi-Po engines (you must verify this yourself - see pictures for exacting details). It appears to be in good condition - the rubber bonding is good as is the oil seal shaft. Note it has timing marks inscribed on the outside surface for accurate timing settings.


    This was removed from an engine years ago, been collecting dust since, and is time to sell; unfortunately I know very little about this part other than what is noted....it does have a good appearance and is freshly painted.

    This old Hipo Mustang title listing was ended by the seller February 27, 2020 with the following explanation "This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing".

    I am surprised that Ebays policy has changed on these paperwork things as they did not allow it previously.

    The Ford casting numbers are hard to read, but i believe that they are just readable. I have had these a long time figuring I would do another HiPo car, but can't find one that's presentable. The white ink indicates Left or Right side.
