The engine is a GMC 228. It was pretty tired as the cylanders were worn +/- 42thou. But still a strong heavy block with plenty of meat left. Will bore 60 over. Crank has alreadey been turnd 10 thou. But its the origional engine and thats my plan for the whole truck. Yes i have decided to ballance the crank rods pistons flywheel and ballancer.

The frame is painted, front end completed and Im really feeling good about the whole truck. Not much more grease and filth left and I dont call her "Rusty" anymore. Need a new name. Anyway thanks for the input on ballancing. G. Lee
