Once you install the the bushings for the balance shaft delete they dont come out

How To: Balance Shaft Delete

[slitterell]

Thanks for the link! I have read that and the subsequent post before. I was hoping someone had done it to the LSJ and found a way around dropping the motor. I feel comfortable doing the work, I am just not sure I will have the time or will be willing to pull the motor at this point.

You may want to consider neutral shafts then. Not the best solution but still way better than stock.

I will eventually just do the deletes. It is more of a when then an if. I am considering ordering them and holding on to them until I am ready

It would be interesting to see the gains made just from NBSD.

Shouldn't it just be a BSD because they aren't neutral stock?

Well, my motor tear down begins in the next couple of days. I haven't torn it down yet because of the weather. I might go ahead and order and install the BSD but that depends on how the tear down looks. I am 90% sure I blew a head gasket.

I was just driving down the road and the car started vibrating bad, could smell raw fuel and exhaust, and could hear a massive leak. Sounds are coming from the rear of motor but block and head seems to be intact. So, yes, a massive tear down with pictures is in order.

If y'all don't mind, keep an eye out for a long block just in case. (please no please no please no). Or hell, maybe it is time for an LS RWD conversion

I was talking about going from BS to NBS to NBSD.

Yes on the first part and uh ah on the second part.

Yeah... It's happened a few times. That's no good

What typically causes this? Threads are gone on head
