I have the last of my parts for my 2056 build up on the way. Im looking for a good shop to do the Dynamic Engine Balancing. I know I will have to ship, so I guess the location is not critical to North Carolina or East Coast. But I am looking for someone who does Type 4/VW work and is familiar with the ins and outs specific to these engines.
Can anyone one here provide a recommendation please.

Best regards

_Robert

I had mine done at Gregory's Fleet Supply machine shop in Norfolk, Va. Just talked to Dean there & he said they're still set up to do balancing. Phone number is 800-992-1606. Read Jake's list of what all to take to them--you'll want to have the flywheel and pressure plate mounted on to the crank. Up to you to deal with the fan end of it--not sure if I had that done also but you should if it'll fit on their machine.
Ask them about pistons & rods--you can do them yourself with a sensitive scale though...
