---snip--- Once you have ever driven behind (in front of) a completely balanced engine, you will never want anything else. ---snip---

Does anyone on the list know of a good hands-on reference for high-quality engine rebuilds? Including such tidbits as balancing, and how to do it properly?

I'd be surprised if there was anything Wasserboxer-specific on the topic, but I'd like to get a general idea of what's involved. I'm sure I could rebuild it, but I want to know how to make it better, stronger, faster than before (without spending $6 million :-).

Tim
