Long ago I had the rotating assembly of my 302 engine balanced... crank,
pistons, rods, OEM dampener and a flexplate for a C4 trans. I assembled the
engine but havent run it yet. After that, I changed my mind and got a T5 and a
new aluminum flywheel. I'm now buying a new Fluidampr harmonic dampener (the
OEM rubber is over 30 yrs old), and I'm wondering: Do I need to take it all
apart and have it all balanced again? I will disassemble and reassemble anyhow
before firing this summer to be sure assembly lube is OK, but I dont want to
waste $450 for balancing, etc. if I dont need that.
I asked on the list for a recommendation for a Clevaland Ohio shop who does
good, accurate work but got no replies. I've found a place in our Yellow
Pages who seems expensive and I dont know about their reputation. Can anyone
help here?
