It's a stock 5.0 block out of a 94. It's a fresh rebuild with .30 stock style pistions. Is it worth $160 to get the rotating assy balanced?

Try this:
put a tennis shoe on your right foot,a work boot on your left foot,run down the street.
then repeat with work boots on both feet,
repeat again with tennis shoes on both feet.
heavy shoes or light shoes,balanced is better
