Cast crank small blocks are balanced by using the correct flexplate.  B&M
sells them - see Summit, Jegs, or a local speedshop.  See this page for part
numbers.

cast cranks are sometimes called " externally balanced " cranks , so
they have thicker dampers on the front and u also have to balance the
flexplate/convertor  with the crank. Say u had a convertor/ flexplate
from a 727 torqueflite that had  run behind a steel crank 340, and u
replaced your 340 with a  360. Now the  360 " bolts up"to the  tranny
just fine , but the balance is off because the  360s had  cast
externally balanced cranks. My guess is the shop wuld have to add a
little weight to the convertor.  Thye do it by welding on little chunks
of metal, kind of like when u have your tires balanced
