balance
Thanks for that link...the rotating assembly in the motor was balanced, we are going to the manual crank so we can lose the flywheel adapter, so this trip to the balancers is for the new manaual crank..... this will be a standard external balance. when we set the 181 motor up we will go the full whack and get it internally balanced...and , if all my dreams come true we'll get a nice set of rods and pistons too.
weight match all the rods and pistons and match them before heading off to the balancer sometimes the rods can vary pretty bad in these things upto 8 grams difference or more thats a lot.you can overbalance the engine for high rpm work.
