Engine balanced

Recently all of the engine components took a trip to auto sprint for some balancing to ensure the best running and performance.

The parts sent were, pistons, con rods, lightened flywheel, sprung plate, crank, crank pulley

The results found that the difference between the lightest and heavyset con rod was 30g which is a huge difference consider they are stock and would have been fitted by BMW without any balancing. The clutch masters flywheel was also out of balance and was drilled to bring it back into balance.

The crank pulley was perfectly in balance as was the pistons.

On the picture you can see the drilled balancing on the flywheel and the grinding which has taken place on the crank and the sides / bottom of the con rods.

I hope to be able to clean everything and start building the engine very soon
