Hi to all,
Read and review the forum pages and
I came across quite a bit in the proposition sentence: "Balance shafts Removed"

What are instead of them in they place?
How exactly is this done in Relative to the timing chain?
And what is it useful and contributes exactly?

removing them helps engine to rev more freely, gains a few bhp to.
you can buy a kit to do it or remove the shafts, push inner bearings in (7.5mm i think?) to block oil way, cut ends off the shafts and use theses to fit sprockets and chain.

And does this have negative consequences?

In the engine design, what exactly is a balance shafts Their usefulness?
Is there a diagram or a documentation that is exactly what they are contributing\helpfuling to the engine, while removing\canceling tham?

nothing negative noticeable on mine but they are both tuned engines anyway.
they are meant to help the engine run smoother and be more refined to drive.
plenty of us on here have done this and no problems.

i cant find the difference the pound still stands on the engine with or without the shafts the added ease of rpm is a much better improvement
