Is it the a oil pump or water pump.
I was thinking about port polishing the heads.
What's involved, do i have to take of the alternator,power steering pump, water pump etc.
Or as you see in the pics do i just need to remove the exhaust manifold and up it comes.

I have already taken out the hydraulic lifters. push rods, rockers.

Has anyone done this before it's a vn S1 what's involved?

cheers guys

its the balance shaft

You have to take the heads off obviously, and then dissasemble the heads and +1 ^ that is the balance shaft

[Leebo]

So the balance shaft has to come out? how about the accessories do they probably have 2 come out?

Anything attached to the heads comes off anthing not doesn't

makes sense
