Question Motor Rebuild Ques.

I'm going to rebuild my bottom end and was wondering a few things.

1) Should I have my rotating assembly balanced? I'm on a budget and I am using stock (home ported) heads (stock valves) and intake and my mach. shop charges $190. I may get another intake but prob not heads also Imay spray it w/100 shot. I was thinking balancing or a main girdle?? Either? I am on a pretty tight budget but don't want to sacrifice durability.

2) What cam should I use? My heads are milled .035 and I'd like to keep the 1.7 RR's. Leave stock cam? I like the specs on the trickflow #1 cam (lift with 1.7's would be .530/.542 & 221/225 dur @.050) too much for shaved heads?

Any other suggestions, tips greatly appreciated !!

Thanks
Wes
