Funnily enough, I was reading an S&S article and in it they were saying that one of the main sources of the vibration were imbalance in the weight of the small ends, which balancing should look at and address.

The additional Dyna vibration is likely something else. It's a "known" issue now.

I would not worry about the "no Evo mention". A non-bike shop could do it, there may be a crank specialist near you. The Evos are easier due to be being bolted together rather than pressed.

But know it should be cheaper too. Consider T&O too.

Called Darkhorse today, I got a quote in the 1200 range to rebuild, true, balance and reassemble my lower end. For the amount of work they do that was described to me that sounds like a good price, plus the peace of mind knowing that my bottom end was done by the best in the business. Thinking of sending my heads and cylinders to T-man for one of his Evo top end kits and one of his cams.

What do they do for that?

For $960 you can pick up a whole new S&S 4-5/8" stroker crank and get your local shop to install it.

Retail on S&S stroker is about $1200.

Oh and if you want people to take you seriously then you need to change your screen name.
