What's the best deal going these days for having the engine rebuilt/updated?
I've got an 02 x440s that probably hasn't had the updates done and has a few mystery rattles in the motor, especially when it's hot. It runs well and doesn't appear to be using any oil. The oil filter hasn't had any metal in it that I've been able to find the last couple of oil changes.
I've got it plated and use it to take the shortcut to work some days, so I spend a little time a constant speeds and higher RPMs and it seems to vibrate a bit. Would balancing the crank have any effect on those vibes or is it just the nature of these engines?
