Balance shaft delete: High oil pressure?

[Lonewolf64]

If I do the proper balance shaft belt delete with stubby shaft, I have heard that I may see dangerously high oil pressures. Is this true, or can I safely perform this mod and not worry?

You will definitely increase oil pressure. You can read more about it in this thread where how to lower down oil pressure is discussed. Link

Just monitored my engine with a gauge yesterday. I removed the balance shafts and ported the housing. At cold start my OP went to right about 90, but retreated to 60 when warmed up.

I don't think the increased oil pressure from the BS removal is anywhere near as big of a deal as it is made out to be on this board.
