Is it necessairy to balance new Eagle Rods?
I heard how some people have their rods individually balanced....
I had my crank balanced at the machine shop, but I have brand new Eagle H beams and I was wondering if I can just bolt them up and ride, or do I have to balance them..
BTW? Anyone running ACL's With them?

I'm running Eagle Rods, SRP pistons, and ACL bearings. Didn't have them balanced and I've been running fine for a year and a half. I haven't revved any higher than 7500rpm though.

Thanks man, I was wondering, are these ARP rod bolts, and Main studs the type that once you torque them down, they are no good if you remove and try to reuse?
Ive never done plasti-guage before, but I Thought you laid the strip down, Tighten, and it squeezes the strip and you go by how much it squeezed for measurement.
So Will it be Ok to do this, remove them, and retighten? Sorry if that sounds like a stupid question
