    h22 balancer shaft

    when building a h22 motor(500hp), is it neccessary to remove the balancer shaft?
    if you got something smart to say, guess what, i dont care.

    No its not neccessary, Its just to free up some extra power and give you the extra oil pressure if you are keeping the stock oil pump.

        You cant just replace them. You need to get the kaizen speed balance shaft eliminator kit. Its just a bunch of plates and other plugs that you need to use to plug up all the holes left when you take out the balance shaft.

        The balance shafts are long shafts that run parallel to the crankshaft and controls the engine vibration by spinning the opposite way to counter act the engine vibration.

            Yes, IF you can take them out while the engine is in the car then you have some wonder skills...lol.

                What he says. Its possible to do it in car you just need to tilt the motor like a mofo. So in other words its a lot easier pulling it out with the motor out. HOnda-tech has a writeup using teh Kaizen kit. The balancer shaft is a pretty long piece. Plus the engine will only tilt so far in the engine bay.

                  but if i leave it in, will it cause any damage to my motor because of the 400+ hp?

                    on my old motor i just took the balancer shaft belt off... rode it for a long time like that...
                    on my current motor i used a kazzenspeed elim kit. FIY the crank girdle must come off to tap/plug a hole and put in a few other plugs... My only complaint about it is that i make a lot of oil pressure. When its hot at idle i make 40psi and when i cruise its about 80psi and when getting on the gas it can go above 100psi... I'm not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing but its ok...

                      What will suck is if you have a high volume oil pump plud the kaisen speed kit. Talk about ridiculous oil pressure.
