cool thanks...one of my friends removed the balance shaft and he said his car reved a little faster...and it was supposed to free up like 10 hp...but i really dont think im gonna do it though, i plan on keeping the car for a while and dont need to throw a new motor in it down the road...thanks for the help though, much appreciated!
i agree with the vibration from the mm. i had the agp solid mm for 3 or 4 months and sold em cause of the vibration when i turned on the ac. size tap did you use for the hole?
I don't recall. I measured the hole, then grabbed the tap that was the closest to that size.
As for the vibration, the balance shafts are there for the comfort of the passengers. There was a big discussion about this not to long ago on SRTForums. IIRC, even one of the engineers said that the balance shafts serve no purpose other than to make the car feel "smoother" to the passengers.

No offense taken. For the record, I would never use the "F" word to a fellow Dodge owner. If U read what what Roadrunner wrote (he and I are from the "old Dodge school" when we were moding 2.2L and 2.5L's. He knows his stuff) Unless your building an all out race car, it's not recomended. BUT>>>>if you can deal with the NVH issues that go along with that type of mod, go for it. He is correct in stating it MAY cause some extra wear. Actually, I stand corrected, a John Deere would be smoother..LOL.

Don't remove the shafts! I did and totally regreted it. Not only does your butt vibrate more but so does every internal engine component! There are much safer ways to pick up 15 extra HP.
