FWIW, back when I lived in the frozen north, I had Detroit Balance in
Ypsilanti do all of the rotating engine and clutch pieces in my TR4.
Huge benefit to cost ratio.

I'm sure it's a result of the downturn of Michigan's economy, but I'm
cannot
find anyone who is willing to take on the shot peening, lightening and
balancing of my TR6 rods and crank ... I can find a good shop for
grinding,
and he will not balance anything ... and doesn't know of anyone in MI
who shot
peens anymore .... I've found a really good place for nitriding but they
don't
do anything else ...

Help! Does anyone have a tame machine shop that still does shot peening
and is
wiling to grind, cross drill and and balance a Triumph crank?

Thanks,
