Fluidampr x ESP: Protecting Heavy Super Stock Power.

For nearly 5 seasons, Fluidampr has supported Heavy Super Stock at Empire State Pullers, where engines run under extreme load and control matters every pass.

Torsional vibration is a hidden force inside engines that affects performance, durability, and long-term reliability. In Heavy Super Stock, that force shows up fast. Every firing event sends force through the crankshaft, creating a twisting motion that can affect timing, component life, and overall engine stability. You may not see it from the stands, but it is there on every run.

“We want the best for our tractor & our engine builder chooses the best in Fluidampr.”

How Fluidampr Helps

Fluidampr dampers are designed to control torsional vibration across the full RPM range. Unlike traditional rubber harmonic dampers, they do not rely on tuning for a narrow RPM band. That means more consistent vibration control under real-world load, where engines are pushed hard and conditions change fast.

What proves itself in Heavy Super Stock also matters beyond the track. The same forces affect diesel trucks, performance builds, and other hard-working engines. The environment may change, but the physics do not. That is why torsional vibration control matters anywhere power and load come together.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is torsional vibration in an engine?
Torsional vibration is the twisting motion of the crankshaft caused by combustion forces that can impact engine durability and performance.

How does a damper reduce engine vibration?
A viscous damper reduces engine vibration by absorbing torsional energy through an internal inertia ring and silicone fluid, helping stabilize crankshaft motion.

Is torsional vibration control only important in tractor pulling?
No. Torsional vibration control is important for tractor pulling, diesel trucks, performance engines, and any application where engines operate under load.
