Default Balancer ?'s...

What determines the size / weight of the Balancer to be used on the motor?

I've heard that the reason you go with a 28oz - is if it's an 'earlier' 302 model, which has a different crankshaft of some sort; and that the 50oz is what 'most' 302's use.

What is the difference? What should I be using on a 306 combo built from a '95 Cobra block? Pat told me to get a 28oz, but now I'm corn-fused.

Thanks,

if the motor is a newer motor, crank rods etc then it will be a 50 oz imbalance...you really cant change it to a 28 oz resonably...
