Installing Euthanasia Ported & Built Head. TONS OF PICS
One more thing. All these motors with worn timing chain guides broken bolts and stuff. Do ya think if there was an ATI damper that would happen less or not at all?
stupid speculation, I know....

BTW speaking of stainless, I am sadly misinformed and sway bars will now come with cad plated 12.9 bolts instead of stainless. Use rust check I am done with stainless as a corrosion resistant fastener. No failures. BUT
did a stainless vs grade 5 /8.9 test a couple of days ago.
ugh.

Back to topic, I am really liking the work Euthanasia is doing for me. Responsive, careful, and successful in an operation I totally failed at. And I dont mean polishing or stroking metal or any other member.
imagine TTR mounts.

the other bolts I have broken , has happened removing three year old sway bars that the fasteners are corroded on, the bolts just snap.
ya I can send you some. But I am NOT gonna upgrade existing ones. its already a fortune to add stainless to the mix.
anyway enough thread jack.
I didn't
I don't think its a stupid speculation and I would be speculating also but I think that anytime you can get a better hold on the harmonics of the engine your better off
I do know the stock dampener doesn't do much past 6000 rpm according to ati and turbo tim broke a reluctor ring(words from him) on the stock dampener so I guess a lot of it depends on how serious you want to get and how hard you want to spin it

the balance shafts have nothing to do with the rotating assembly balance they are there for driver comfort and to rob power
hawylins on the rlf did that to his I would ask him or get the gm nb shafts

I agree. Love what Jr has done and is continuing to do for me. Can't wait to slap it all on

...boom. Anyway as far as the balance shaft argument I can speak from experience and say delete them. They will not rattle your teeth out like people claim. You notice a little rattle at idle and right around 2k while cruising. If it wasn't for our cheap ass interior you wouldn't notice a thing. The rev difference is noticible greatly espcially if you match it with the lightweight flywheel. I have spare dummy bearings left if you need some. Or I can make more its cheap to delete them. Anyway subd for the numbers!
