anybody got a quick explanation of the two?
That Mallory ,has really gotten expensive,the last few years.... Something to think about.....plenty of fast 360s out there with internal and external balanced cranks....
last internally balanced 360 I did...had rods that weight 630 grams..and piston weight 507 grams..crank still took a couple of slug on Mallory on the outer journals..
Also, all 318's are internal balance - right? I understood that only the later 360's were external balance small blocks.
So if I am building a stroker 318 to 390 do I need to send out the rotating assy to machine shop and have it balanced?
sadly.... the 1973 340 uses a balancer... that nobody has in Stock.... also aftermarket balancers are not availible...... as far as I know....
Greetings Juergen
So when you say it is balanced are you referring to all the pistons weigh the same and all the rods weigh the same? Why would you have to drill the crank and add heavier metal?
the weight of the oil? please tell how this guru knows how much oil is on- the crank, rods, pistons etc.
