Geoff---The TR6 engine doesn't really need 'professional' balancing to
run reasonably smooth right up to redline. Care must be taken when
changing rotating parts to be sure their weight is the same as the part
you replaced, or balanced in itself, such as a flywheel, or clutch
package. If items such as pistons were replaced with larger ones after a
rebore, then a balancing of all parts connected to the crankshaft should
be done, separately and as a unit.

The motor mounts could also be suspect, but I wouldn't recommend ones
harder than the stock set engineered for this motor.
