      I have the quick version of this video on FB, but I might do a compilation of the entire engine build when I am done.

    The weight should be taken from the inside of the piston. The bottom end of the rod assembly basically goes round and around in a circular orbit but its rotational speed is constant. The pistons go up and down, accelerating and stoping at each end of the stroke so the loads on the piston are greater and the unbalanced loads are greater if the pistons are out of balance.

    10:55 I thought: "that's a handy bench sander", then immediately realised...
    But hey, if it works, it works!

    The shop I used to sweep and clean as a 14 yr old, did alot of chevys, 327s 350s, 396s, they were really bad from the factory. People would buy new S.S. cars and drive directly to the shop to have the new engine balanced. Those went bad on the Datsun esp that year.

    Since the Beetle is called John Lemon, the Porsche should be called Elvis. The best restomod Porsches are called "Singer", and yours, well... Yours is better, it is The King!

    • @HomeBuiltByJeff
      @HomeBuiltByJeff  6 лет назад

      Haha, mine is a long way off a Singer, but I like the thought

    • @jdmfreak22
      @jdmfreak22 6 лет назад +1

      In my heart, it isn't. Singer is a company with a professional staff that are completely dedicated to building those cars. You are a one man team, a jack of all trades, doing all this on his free time, and sharing it with all of us. Long live the King! =)

    Hi Jeff , If your L28 came out of a automatic car ,the engine balance was not good as the torque converter worked as a
    fluid damper . Please Please Please get all the rest of your reciprocating mass Professionally Balanced. On 6cyl engines
    they don't need the weight of your pistons , rods etc as long as they are the same. It's not worth the risk
    My harmonic balancer would come loose and has fallen off before i balanced my engine

    • @HomeBuiltByJeff
      @HomeBuiltByJeff  6 лет назад +2

      The engine was in a manual previously, and it is way better than it ever was. Most engines are way out of balance from the factory, so I am happy with what I have now.

    Are you then going to balance the crank and flywheel? If not it seems a waste of time balancing the pistons. This is not a race car, s it does not really matter..

      @HomeBuiltByJeff  6 лет назад +1

      The car is a 1971 240z, and the L24 has been replaced with an L28. Still a 240z though.
