I am thinking of rebuilding my 292. I am planning on using high ratio rockers, G heads ported and polished, Sanderson headers, new pistons (cast or forged don't know which yet). The question I have is should I get my crankshaft balanced? Is there a considerable increase in cost in having this done? I am planning on using this for my 60 3/4 ton 4x4. I will be using it for some light towing, hauling and general driving. Appreciate the advice.

Absolutely! Any engine will benefit from a good balance job. It provides a great cost/benefit. I don't think the balancing will cost more than $200.00. Considering everything else you're planning, that's a small fraction of the total cost.
You'll find some good articles on balancing here:

Thanks. I thought it would be a good idea. Cost doesn't seem as much as I thought. Thanks again.
