So im not building a race motor, but I have been reading up on alot of builds and everyone seems to be leaving out the part about balancing the crank rods and pistons. Now I know that honda dose a zero balence so should I just throw the new tt rods in my a6 or should I take everthing to the shop and have it balanced?

 

get it balance and micropolish

 

dont ---- with the crank

 

to balance the bottom end you need the crank/ rods/ pistons/ rings/ bearing/ flywheel/clutch..basiclay everything inside the block that moves. nuts bolts everything.

good luck!

 

I had my bottom end spin balanced as i felt it was worth it.Def not cheap it was $275 CDN locally for me but you might as well if you have the cash.

 

All depends on how high of an rpm you want to spin. I'm shooting for 10,500 rpm on my ls/vtec, so I'm def. getting the crank and everything else balanced to match. For stock rpms, I wouldn't even worry about it.

 

i got my crank blanced and micropolished for 90 bucks, i take it to 9500 all day no problems
