Balancing the lower end?

Anyone have this done? Pro's/con's? I'm thinking it can't hurt. Give me some feed back if you don't mind.
Also MAIN GIRDLE, should it be done? Or is that just for high rpm trucks?
Thanks in Advance
Justin

Wouldn't a fluidamper be the easiest way to balance things out?

That's already on the list.
But I'm not sure if that's all I need to do?

Be sure to use the stock damper to balance the bottom end. A Fluidampr or similar damper will minimize vibrations and give a false reading or end result.
