2 questions.
I am going to install forged pistons and rods with the Stock GT crankshaft. What needs to be balanced?

Are there any links to write up / walkthroughs on putting a short block togather?

Do a “dynamic balancing“. It includes everything from the damper to the flywheel. Make sure to balance it to at least 15% above max RPM.

Engine Suggestions on an engine rebuild. Stock cam/GT40Ps or aftermarket on both for a fun weekend driver?
