About Cranky Sean's Balancing
Our Mission
At Cranky Sean's Balancing, we strive to provide high-quality balancing and exceptional service. Our mission is to ensure every engine runs smoothly and efficiently, helping you stay on the road or on the track longer without worrying that your engine is rattling apart.
Or. we can deliver precision balancing that turns your ride into a tire-shredding, ground-rumbling beast. Forget “smooth and efficient”—we’re talking about engines that rattle windows, shake the street, and make your neighbors question their life choices.
Let us help you craft a machine so perfectly balanced, the only vibrations you’ll feel are the ones echoing from the roar under the hood—not from a wobbly rotating assembly. Smile every time you start it up… because chaos shouldn’t come with compromise.
Even a small imbalance in an engine can create powerful, damaging forces. For instance, a weight difference of just 1/4 oz. (7 grams) positioned four inches from the crankshaft center can generate about 7 lbs. of force at 2,000 RPM—barely noticeable. But at 8,000 RPM, that same imbalance can produce a force of 114 lbs. per revolution. If the imbalance increases to one ounce (28 grams), the force jumps to 456lbs, slamming the rod and main bearings at high speed. This leads to extra wear on engine bearings and wastes energy through vibration and shaking instead of turning the crankshaft. Ultimately, this reduces performance, efficiency, and engine life.
Proper engine balancing prevents these issues by eliminating excess forces, allowing the engine to run more smoothly and efficiently, delivering full power to the wheels.
