here's a few more pictures from balancing the rotating assembly. the lesson here is that just because you have a neutral balance damper or flexplate, don't expect it to actually be neutral.
keep in mind that if your going to the trouble to balance the crank, rods, pistons, etc, it's worth it (and the proper way IMO) to balance the pieces that bolt to it.
here's the initial out of balance on the damper
