Im going to remove my balance shafts pretty soon here. Just wondering what kind of machine work or balancing you would consider? I have wiesco pistons and eagle rods on a stock crank. would i just balance the crank or what?

Balance shafts do not require internal engine balance but it helps.

I recommend balancing the full engine rotating assembly if you are building the engine ,otherwise if leaving the motor in the car ,yank them both ,toss in a full cut down shaft or mirage stub shaft and let it buck.

What happened to all the turned down shafts that LSE used to have?
