just got my balance shafts installed

they look very well machined

not the easiest thing to put in but certainly not the hardest.. with the engine out of the car.

took maybe 30 minutes to an hour to install.

I removed my balance shafts and I was surprised that there really isnt that much vibration. my mirrors start vibrating around 2700 rpm and I get a nice little massage but it goes away around 3000rpm And that's with my engine solid mounted to the frame and the frame solid mounted to my seat.
