In stead of buying the kit, what keeps you from taking the shafts out and just cutting them down so there are just nubs behind the sprockets? I feel like that would be the same thing instead of buying a kit.

 

you need the sleeves to press in (with a 30mm socket) to block the oil passages to keep good oil pressure

 

Oh yeah I forgot about that. I'm debating on doing this, I was just thinking of a cheap way to do it

 

racecras!

 

you can drill through the side of the block and tap and plug the oil feed then plug the block

 

This too
There's a how to floating around

 

LZM does sell just the bushings that you tap in for $80 iirc.

 

Man ill have to look up where I got the sleeve for where I blocked mine off. I just cut the balance shaft off beside where the gear is..

 

Please do! Thats exactly what I'm talkin about

 

This is not what I have but, basically the same part. when my motor was being put together the machine shop fab'd mine up. But this is the same thing.

I have the remaining balance shafts in my garage so you can see a rough ideal how much has to be cut off. You might want the back half going back in the motor machined flat thou. Ill go grab them and snap a pic of what I cut off.

 

I'm still undecided on how much I want a machine shop to do with my block. It would be nice to have them assemble the whole short block but I think that is too much $$. And to have them fab up block off would probably be a lot more

 

They are rusty for they are old and I didn't take care of them for they can never be used anyways.

 

If you bought that kit. You would only need to press the bushing in your self it's actually not that hard. And as far as a machine work you would just need to take the sprocket of the balance shaft in and have them smooth the back where you made your cut. Unless you have access to a high tech table like band saw. Can't think of the technical name their called at the momment.

 

Okay cool, damn what you got in the background....? You building another lsj?!

 

Three Lsj heads and complete blocks.... Maybe...

 

Got my deletes from mongo for 25 bucks. Block offs from level zero ran me 80. I think I picked up power at the wheel since there is less crap spinning as well.

 

damn D-Reck how many complete motors you got? I have 2 Want some stock parts?

 

no **** you picked up power from less crap spinning that's a novel assessment

 

Lol

 

Well I should have given you a little more info. I was thinking compare to just doing a nbs. Lol

 

Well said!

 

its 30bucks for the del kit...

 

Lol no its not.

 

He is a poet. Thought I would state that they are a better option and less expensive than neutral balance shafts.
