6000+ on an unbalanced engine

7000+ on a motor balanced to within 1 gram and lightened.

But if you turn your motor like that, you should be dropping the pan 
fairly regularly anyway.

The stock balance is NIL, so you can take two motors that have sequential 
serial numbers and on one hand motor A is close to balanced and motor B is 
wAAAAAy off. Just for laughs, weigh a set of rods. For that matter, weigh 
a set of pistons (factory, not aftermarket).
