I normally avoid these threads like the plague, (just like I avoid externally balanced motors with long strokes, YIKES) but I will say something here, just to save some machinists some grief in dealing with some of our members. Moper mentioned the cost of balancing will vary depending on the...

And the beat goes on....Ramcharger, crackedback, talk to you off-board...as usual. ROFLMAO! P.S.Got two of the cars home, but neither are Mopars, will pm a couple pics later.
