I visited their sites, but so far a Y-block damper is not in their lists.  What is the price for it?
If purchased directly from Innovators West, the damper price is currently $375.  Stocking dealers may be able to give some additional price breaks or discounts.

Hi Ted, Is there a TBird balancer in the planning stages? It doesn't look like that one will fit a Bird
Doug.  I haven’t discussed a Thunderbird specific damper with Innovators West.  Up to this point I really hadn’t considered the T-Bird application until you brought it up.  On my end, I’d need a minimum order of five to make it a production item and not a custom ‘high priced’ job.

Doug,

John Wilson, AKA "Snowbird" on ebay, had a unit for F code birds a few years ago. I think it was based off a Fluiddamper but I honestly don't remember. Ted and others have told me that the fluid versions are not the best way to solve the problem by the way.

You are right on the money Frank, he had some hubs machined and used a Fluidamper.

I would buy one for a T-bird... now, we just need 4 or more other birder's, right?
