Flywheel / Pressure plate balancing

[rbickle]

I did some research on this last night. All of the stroker kits that I found were set up for the 28oz. offset weights, not the 50 oz. So, although the '95 HO 5.0l engine stock was a 50 oz. offset, when it was converted to a 347, it became a 28oz. This makes more sense.

I fired up the engine yesterday with the new hardware. Ran the RPM's up to 6k or so and the balance seemed fine. Guess those guys know what they're doing. Glad I took the parts to them, or I'd have been taking it apart again.

It was probably your helper on the harmonic balancer nut end that did the trick...

Yes. We got the runout dialed in to less than 0.003 inches. Thanks for the help Bobby!
