	As far as V4's are concerned, they are USUALLY not as well
	balanced as V6's.

	An exception to the rule is the dynamically balanced design
	developed by Mitsubishi and used in the Chrysler/Plymouth
	imports (Colt, Arrow, Sapporo, etc), the Mitsubishis (Cordia,
	Tredia, Starion) and the new Porsche 944.

	Are there any V8's that use a dynamic balancing system similar
	to this?  It would seem from this discussion that it may 
	produce a noticeable smoothing...
