Progress continues on our 283 Chevy small-block V8 rebuild. Davin heads downstate to our friends at Apex Competition Engines to get the rotating assembly (crankshaft, pistons, rods, bearings, wrist pins, and rings) internally balanced. The pistons Davin got for this build are significantly heavier than the stock ones, so a good amount of weight needs to be added to the crankshaft counterbalances to balance things out.
