In My research I have come up with a combination of a Non-Farmall Piston and a Non-Farmall connecting rod that will fir nicely on a stroked crankshaft and take the engine out to almost 380cid and with a compression ratio of 11-1 with a 450 head. The qustion I need to know is about balancing. The piston and connecting rod that I want to use will weigh differntly than the Farmall M piston and connecting rod. Will this matter as long as they weigh the same? What does balnacing an engine really entail. I was always told that a 450 crankshaft was balanced and that is why they run smoother than a 400. Thanks for your help.
