it'll be slow progress, not picking the kit up till march. Really wanted to do a car with an alfa v6 for the noise but the cost of a RWD
conversion put that one to rest, straight six is the next best thing. Perfect primary balance too I think.

and the v8 has perfect secondary balance. read that in some 50s car engine book in the library many years ago.
no idea what either means, just some useless fact stuck in my brain.

im guessing primary balance means the car will be 50-50 front and back,
secondary side to side.
SO since a V8 is basically symetrical it has a perfect secondary balance
