you can buy balancer shaft removel kits for h22a to make it rev better.

Just make sure you keep all the bearings and rings because you might need later on. We've done the removal to 2 cars and had different problems on each one. BTW they were the same kit. There might be some hole tapping involved as well!:thumbsup:

If you dont know what you are doing, then dont attempt. Get a pro to do it!:thumbsup:

did you reuse the part? or replaced it? because i am thinking to replace new bearing .. but not sure with new piston ring, pin etc,, i am looking at good deal on the internet or somewhere else for aftermarket rebuild kit but kinda over $1000 shipped to the door + not include other part labour which is over my target budget atm.. lol.

ecuman: no, nothing wrong with the engine, i m in the process doing h2b swap so i gotta slide the crank pulley in further to create more room to the framerail on the passenger side, to do this i gotta to remove this 2 gear n shaft

What chassis are you doing the H2B conversion in something does not sound right if you have to move the Harmonic balancer.This is the kit you need for balance shaft removal http://www.kstuned.com/products/engine.html&Slug=engine&Sub=50&C=1&T=&Key=
