[T3] Crank/Rod Balancing


<x-charset iso-8859-1>Hi again:

I notice on Nate's website, he "static balances" his motors by weighing each
rod and piston and by removing a little material from the 3 heavier ones and
getting them all the same weight, "static balances them.

Is this sufficient? Or do I need to get a machine shop to balance my stuff?

And how do I go about this? Do I mount the rods of the crank and take just
that assembly in? Are the rods done separately from the crank?

Can any machine shop do this sort of thing or do I need to use a VW guy?

Thanks!
