Yeah man, live and learn is exactly it. I HATE all the waiting... Especially when I caused it.

Start making lists of the things that you're doing. It helps jog the memory when you're waiting to pull the trigger on an order. Saves a ton of money.

Coming up with an idea on a Saturday and ordering parts on Monday, can hurt. Wait a week before ordering on the next go-around. You'll come up with all the things that's you forgot about.

your balancer likely has a stamping on it identifying the imbalance

Wait did the engine builder put on a new or used balancer? and a stock one? The balancer, crank and flexplate all need to be balanced for the same weight.
