      Why, I've been running 2 big blocks without the balance shaft now for years, both turning around 7500 rpm's and I've not had any problems at all! The balance shaft was designed to smooth the engines idle and nothing much more! Hell some of my clone big blocks didn't come with balance shafts and one of my Honda GX270's didn't.

    • @John--cu2yu
      @John--cu2yu Před 4 lety

      It's removed to lower the rotational mass, anything driven by the crank will use the engines power to rotate, this obviously leads to slight power loss and less responsive throttle.

    • @John--cu2yu
      @John--cu2yu Před 4 lety +1

      With changing the piston and rod you've changed the harmonics in the crank so the balances haft wouldn't be any good any more anyway

    I like to set pushrod length so at 1/2 valve travel rocker is parallel to head or valve cover surface .that way rocker angle stays as small as possible on both sides of travel
