I have seen manuals of older cars where sometimes you can get information on whyere to lighten the crank.
When I worked for Chrysler the racing team called the Golden Commandos did a lot of work in all kinds of classes. They also published noites related to 361, 383 400 413 and 440 engines.
The documents were published by Chrysler engineering for the team to use, but sooner or later they got out and were everywhere.
I have not looked anywhere to check out newer stuff, but I do know that Citroen did the same for all their engines except the 2CV and the Maseraiti-produced V6.
Odd note. One guy in Australia who owns/owned a small aircraft repair/restoiration once balanced hisolder Citroen motor to 12000 rpm because he could.
This was in the days before you Tube and so it was often the talk of the different annual meets after someone visited the guy and made an audiotape of the conversation and the engine running.
Needless to say, very smooth.
Good luck on finding the source of info, Tom, it might be out there somewhere and you just haven't seen it yet.
