Ultimate valve jobs
If you want the ultimate valve job check and see if your machinist has the following stuff.
![]() ![]() And if your into alignment how about the latest Hunter stuff ![]() Note the Aston Martin DB2 on the rack isn't mine, Darn. ![]() And if you all are into resizing your connecting rods this is the cats .... ![]() And finally if your into balancing everything this is as good as it gets. ![]() And finally if you all are going to race any cute girls in a honda, and they have a Pink engine like this one, watch out. ![]() |

All looks good to me - just like Walt's shop or EMS. Walt has an old-fashioned balancer with a strobe light. How does that electronic one work?

They both work the same way, only the electronic one displays the location and ammount of weight needed to balance the item. The electronic one uses more methods of balance than the other one, I think, not sure. In any case I suspect that they both balance as well as the other, but the newer electronic one is a whole lot more versitle and easier to use.

PS sorry I forgot to tell how it works, It works by using an accelerometer attached to one end of the item being balanced. The accelerometer detects the angle and ammount of imbalance. the electronics performs calculations, trasnparent to the user, and tells where and how much is needed to balance the item. IT can perform single plane, and dual plane balancing, as well as static and dynamic balance.
