Durability minus balance shaft?

Re: Durability minus balance shaft?

Well im just trying to get across the fact that its not going to vibrate itself apart as everyone with no knowledge of v6s thinks. I've heard it from atleast 4 older car guys at my work "go with a v8, that v6 will vibrate itself apart" and what you're saying sounds exactly like it will vibrate itself to death.

Worst thing that could happen with it removed is that you beat up the motor mounts a little more than usual. Its why a solid mount would be ideal, because the car itself, through the tires, absorb that vibration. So the whole car shakes anyway this scenario, might as well not sponge up the stock or even poly mounts.

As for the engine vibrating to death? I don't remember saying that, and I don't see where I said that. Unless you torque engine bolts in inch lbs instead of foot lbs.......
