Worth the money going internal balance?

I am building an A4 based, all forged, Kenne Bell supercharged, 336 stroker and am trying to decide between 28oz and internal balance. Would it be worth the extra $100 or so to go internal balance? Plus I'd have to buy a new balancer cause I have 28oz right now. Just looking for some input.

Its always worth the extra $ to balance the rotating assy.

If im not mistaken most all the aftermarket cranks are 28oz balance.

The fox 302 is 50 oz balance.


spend the money to do it correct the first time.

the crank needs to be balanced with the flywheel and balancer on it.
 
I'm running a very similar combo to what you're shooting for. I run the Dart block as opposed to an A4. From the high RPM standpoint, you'll probably not need zero balancing (you just don't have to spin very high with a KB).... being smooth through the ENTIRE RPM range is definitely worth the extra 100 bux though. You will def notice the difference between your externally balanced Ford block and an internally balanced one. The difference in harmonics alone will be very noticable.
