Don't you know to truly balance your crank, Your machine guy needs your pistons and rods too?!?!?!

That's what the counterweights on the crank are for!!!!
tsk tsk tsk.
Another machine shop robbin ignorant people

HMTsol 04-22-2009 06:16 PM

They dont balance pistons and rods they just weight them make sure they weight the same.
they needed crank, puley, flywheel, clutch, pistons and rods to do that.
