Re: organization techniques

Dry erase boards and spreadsheets. Also a cork board. For entire car build projects, giant sheets of paper taped to the wall were used to make a list of everything. That's better for a team of people to stay organized.

Re: time/effort saving tools

Not bad:) I was hoping it would get the coolant out of the passages as well but maybe more time would do it. Some cleaners def work better on carbon than others. Maybe Eric needs a "coolant cleaning tank" and a "carbon cleaning tank" instead of "dirty" and "clean&...

Re: Lz9 rotating assembly weights

Makes sense to measure from the center of the bores, but really difficult to do. I thought balancing a connecting rod on a razor blade was difficult.

That makes it a 37/63 weight split, but the weight based on measurements is not even in the ballpark compared to the math. Unless you have a bet...

Re: Lz9 rotating assembly weights

You can balance the stock rod on a razor blade to find the location of the centre of gravity. Knowing the total weight (which you have), and the CG location, you can work out the big and small end weights. Is that something people do? Is there a math formula for it? This is my math alternative;) 20...

Re: For Sale Lz4/9 Cam bearing spacers

Are these using the wide cam bearings recommended in the chevy performance manual, or stock 60V6 cam bearings?
