my 4.3 doesnt have a balalnce shaft- Its supposed too but for some reason the previous owner thought he didnt need it when he built the motor. I have a horrible vibration at 3K rpm. Ive heard they only help idle- ive heard you dont need them and that it wont run without one- Whats the real deal? THanks

Re: balance shaft ?
the real deal is that you have a serious problem with your eng. it is true you dont need one but I would build a bal shaft block and leave it out. might as well build the real thing. also it's harder than you think to delete the gears that the bal shaft runs off of. might wanna think about asking the guy some more questions abuot how it was done and why. I leave um in they do nothingt but help smooth it out.
