The engine is out and I belive the bearings are good for the balance shafts engine was taken out because it burned the main bearing and crank.

I would use the Mitsu brand. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif

It's all factory OE parts. Flip the front BS bearing 180 degrees to block off the oil hole, then use a factory balance shaft plug for the front shaft and a factory stubby for the rear.

Ok so if my bearings are good I can reuse them right and just get these parts?

Yes. Just make sure you turn the front balance shaft bearing 180 degrees to block off the oil feed. And after you install the cap into the front case, I suggest you slather some JB weld over that bitch. A lot of guys have had that thing pop out and create a HUGE oil leak.

AMS sells a balance shaft delete kit but it is pricey. They turn down the weights on a oe balance shaft to make the balance shaft spin with out causing affects to the motor. The reason why they do this is because under high hp applications the bse from mitsu the stub shaft can tweak and crack the front case so in turn using the ams bse kit just makes it so this cant happen because the whole balance shaft is utilized not just a little stub shaft. unless you are planning on 700hp plus just go with bse kit. Street Tuned Motorsports .com sells oe bse kits.
