WARNING ARP Main Bolts/Balance Shaft
So i rebuild my motor at the start of the year, had it running without Balance Shaft than decided I like a bit less vibes. So one night i put it back in ..
5 months later My car started a squeal on cold start and knock when hot, found one cylinder valve clearance was out so i dropped the motor out. the squeal and knock was fan belt pulley.
NOW TO THE MEAT OF IT...... While i was pulling it down i found (see photo) the ARP main bolts were holding up the Balance shaft off the crank!! It was still in the top dead center position its wasnt slipping, I was driving on this for 4 months..
When i put together my engine i will measure and report as to how much needs to be removed from ARP Bolt
Many want Power not many hold it long.........
