i totaly agree with you jonah i should have got it done anyway to make sure and no there was no drilling on the flywheel the person i got it from said that the only ones he has ever had to get balanced was the new ones he has been getting through delco otherwise all the second hand ones he has never had a problem with them

OMG! I had less holes than that lol

The ecotec flexplate has less counterweight than the L67, so mine needed more holes drilled (its very smooth)

Well I stand corrected.

But I am curious why everyone says that the fly wheel must be balanced and Sweetwagon has proof right here. Did your fly wheel have any drilling in it?

You are correct in saying VN-VR flywheel will need to be balanced to suit ecotec/L67.

I currently am still running my auto PCM and chip ( still have fault codes/engine check light on ) and VSS wire cut going to the PCM as per VN - VR manual conversion guide. But I want to fix this.
Now I know that in my current situation I do not have fuel cut on deceleration or fuel trim. Now I know that sourcing a Vs T5 ECU might be difficult, but not impossible so I want to do things the easy way if possible. So my question is if I get a chip made for my auto PCM do dismiss auto fault codes will I have fuel cut on deceleration and fuel trim? or is that not possible without a VSS signal to the ECU?

I would love to get this fixed as I am getting 12/100k and thats with stuffed coil packs ( Miss firing ) and not babying the car to get good fuel consuption, So im looking forward to seeing some good figures :clapping:
