If you were talking about a reciprocating engine, I would certainly agree. However, I have found the rotary to be well - balanced coming from the factory. If you match the right counterweights with the right rotors, you should have a smooth running engine. However, if you don't have anywhere else to spend $350 then I don't see any reason not to have it dynamically balanced. Certainly won't hurt although I don't think it will help much in the case of the rotary unless your are running over 8K. But, this is just an opinion not a fact.

I can't imagine not opting for the dynamic balance. You
get "free" ponies from the smoothness of a well-balanced
assembly, as well as improved longevity.

Before I send a 50% deposit to East Coast Rotary to have Bruce build my engine, he offers two options during the build, ceramic coating the rotors @$310 and dynamic spin balancing the engine rotating assembly to within +- 1g true @$350. Any thoughts, concerns, or comments on these options would be appreciated as I am sending payment this week. Thanks everyone. Dave
