Thanks. I was surprised how well the parts are cleaning up. They had some flash rust starting on them.

Nope, not going to balance them. I've seen too many of these engines live at 5k rpm with no issues and this one will be doing good to see over 3k I'm sure. Balancing does help with idle vibrations and I usually do it on my competition builds, but this is a budget econo build. A little factoid, these bottom ends are good up to 800-1000+hp with stock cummins parts. It's pretty crazy!
