Im putting together a rotating assy. for a ls1 383 build. I'm looking at cranks from texas-speed and I was wondering how do I get a balanced crank if I have the rods here at home and i'm still shopping for the pistons?

 

What Rods? The split (big end and little end) weights should be on the box...or on a card inside. Give them these weights and they can figure the total bob weight.

If you have brand new rods with a weight card they could do it that way,,,However the best way is to make sure they have all the parts, I had mine done by a local shop and he weighed evrything as an assembly (even the wristpin clips) and then numbered the rod combos according to their position on the crank. If I were you and buying the crank and pistons from TSP and want them to balance everything,,,,,I would ship them my rods so they have everything and you know its right.

 

thanks guys I think im gonna have to ship them in when i comes time because i dont see and card or wieghts for that matter.
