Balance shaft?

Yeah, 60degree V6s are the ones you can get right.. makes me wonder why 90degree ones exist.

Turbo make any diference to whether or not to retain the shaft?

if your having your engine rebuilt, shouldn't you ask your rebuilder what he reckons you should do, considering at the end of the day he's doing the work that well should be guaranteed so he will know whether it'll fall apart or not.

Nope, my good friend paul (zuicider) is rebuilding it. He has run motors both ways with no problems.

heard your crank can shatter also

lol, he gives me such faith

Where I'm at now is trying to decide which option will provide the better end result with boost. I think it'll end up being left in the motor as per factory.

just for the record, I ended up using the balance shaft.

like jason (greenfoam) said to me, how important is 3hp??
