Im building a motor, this is my first one, and im tryin to learn as much as i can. Like what not to do and what to do and the little tricks and stuff soo here goes.........I am building a Ls/Vtec for Turbo. I just bought Eagle rods for it and a couple people told me i should get them balanced at a machine shop. Is this a must? How much is this goin to help me and about how much would this cost?

 

Well, Eagles are all supposed to be weight matched to within 1 gram, but balancing it usually pretty cheap and it def. wouldn't hurt.

 

yeah the rods should be pretty well balanced to begin with max spec though should be no more than 1 gram
