Re: 67 front drum harmonic whine issue

make sure the drums after turning are smooth and don't show "chatter" or "threading". They can be caused by improper machining technique. Chatter will look like a diagonal pattern most times and threading is cause by too fast a feed speed during a cut causing what will look like threads of a bolt(all be it very fine) both can cause funky noises/vibrations during braking.
Like Longhair said if the spring is missing from the outside circumference of the drum you will very likely get harmonic noises.
