Hey guys, i just got my 340 assembly back from the balance shop. I thought the bob weight was a little high. Stock 340 forged crank turned .030 under, eagle h beams, .060 over kb243's. Here are the specs

Piston 602.6g
Pin 131.6g
Locks 4.2g
Rings 58.2g
Rod Reciprocating 212.4
Rod Rotating 2 x 480.2g = 960.4g
Bearings 2 x 57.8g = 115.6g
Oil 4g

Total Bob Weight 2089.0g
Total Rod Weigh 692.6g

How does a stock 340 measure up? Everything seem kosher?
 
Seems fine. Stock 340 pist is 720
Stock rod is 758
Std rod brng is 46
#s on the balance i recently did for my newest engine if youd like something to compare to, but not stock:
Rod rot 415.5
" 415.5
Brng-std 46

Oil. 4
Pist. 620
Pin. 118
Locks. 4
Rngs-1/16" 51.5
Rod recip 158
Bobweight total: 1778.5
Scat i rods, 4.08 bore icon ft pist

I dunno, for some reason i just thought the total bob weight was kinda high.
