Ballancing a 1973 340

Thanks for the reply. :) The 340 is already installed and I was really hoping it would not need to be pulled again. :( Guess Im not going to get away with that?

Will an Engine Shop be able to ballance the parts I already have or is there no way this can happen and I'd need to buy a new fly wheel and Harmonic Ballancer?

Will the Engine Shop need to have the engine running? There is a very good Shop near me so it should not be such a huge issue.

I thought I was almost there with the conversion but this will really scupper me.

So it looks like I really need to get the 340 back out?

G-Day Mate, first you will need to get the proper rotating/reciprocating components for your build. 73 340 is externally balanced so flywheel and crankshaft damper have imbalance. Take the build components to a competent shop that has a good reputation for quality engine building . BTW, good work don't come cheap! Proper balance makes a big difference. 65'
