Haha. It was a pretty funny request.
Gonna attempt to have this stuff balanced but am striking out all over. The assembly and machine work is all true but its still a small concern of mine.

Ryan, I was just talking the other day to my machinist guy who will help me do the weighing and balancing my rotating assembly parts and got off topic a bit. No one local can spin balance your flexplate adapter and whatnot? My machinist says he does it all the time. Does balancing of flywheels for John deere when the local assembly plant by us has a vibration. They give him the flywheel or other related parts and he finds that they are out of balance from whoever the manufacturer of them are. Or guys who take a auto trans out and put a manual in and all of a sudden develop a vibration they never had. He takes the flywheel and checks the balance. Then bolts up the clutch and pressure plate and checks balance again. I'm across Lake Michigan from you though so not helping much lol.

Big problem is there is no hole through the center of these pieces so that is the issue. I have it covered though. Were making a "crankshaft" and using a hub to bolt up the pieces I need balanced. Basically balancing a lower end in a way.

 

[timj]

Gottcha. Glad you got something figured out.

 

[blk350on20s]

All balanced up. Now to wire it all up. This will be a nightmare LOL

 

[NathannialD]

wiring goes fast not that many wires are required for proper operation.

 

[blk350on20s]

Might be calling you tomorrow Nathannial haha. Seems somewhat straight forward now that I have schematics but with sand drags next weekend I'm trying to plan ahead so everything goes quick and smooth.

 

[dsberman94]

Billet has taken shape. Now all that's left is wiring. Probably gonna need some assistance with that LOL

And some pushrods I had made for a buddy haha

 

[B585Ford]

That's top notch sir.

 

[blk350on20s]

Trans is in. Most of it wired. Linkage and some wiring is left. Then tuning time.

The wiring fun....

 

[NathannialD]

i dont have your number anymore or id just text you, contact either Idaho Rob or Bob Olsen for a solid base tune, they both have tuned them with the pcs and it will get you a solid base tune.

 

[blk350on20s]

Awesome Nathannial. Thank you. I think Craig's sending me one, possibly Mike Haller as well. I'll def call Idaho Rob up as I dont know who or what the other guy is. Can't hurt to have a few files to start with. Especially with the drags in 3 days LOL

 

[NathannialD]

true, im sure craig would have something that would be ideal.
