I pulled my harmonic balancer off the engine and saw the letter "R" stamped on the crank....Does that mean Reman? Riviera? Don't know the history of the car...Does anyone elses car have that. Anyone else seen it? dunno

I don't know for sure, could be a reference to the balance or some other production code.
