I’m am having this concern about if the damper has to be flush with the crank snout or is there suppose to be a gap in between. .? I used an installer kit prior to installing the damper.

Thanks for the video. You are okay, the dampener does not need to be flush. Torque the mounting bolt down and you are all set. Damper to Crankshaft Bolt 75 foot pounds.
