yea thats all the balancing was...I read that it wasnt really necessary as the 22r's are supposed to be pretty good from the factory but my machinists had to take quite a lot of material from the rods to get them within spec. The Rock pistons from EB were nearly perfect outta the box.

I hear you about that "misc" category!! I got me a cheapo stand from harbor freight and used their 20% off coupon...it works fine and held my 390 ford but dont even think about trying to spin a V8 on that thing with out getting injured lol I know from experience! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" />
