Engine balancing video?
« on: November 05, 2020, 12:18:48 PM »
Charles called me yesterday and said he has my crank assembly balanced It took 2 plugs in the rear 1- 3/4 oz-1- 1/2 oz and 1 in the front 1/2 oz.
While talking to him he said he took a video of the crank being balanced.
If anyone is interested I can post the process if I can figure how to post the video on this site.
Well go down there and pick up the assembly next Saturday if I don't have to work.

When he balanced my engine It took two plugs.  That was with the Eagle Rods, JE pistons and an aluminum 390 flywheel without the counterweight.
