More vibration im guessing, but is is too much? Car will be a road car, not a track. |

Jon | Posted - 05 Oct 2018 : 14:23:53 I've never heard of there being separate balance shafts for each size of engine. Knowing Ford, they commonise where thay can.

Woody | Posted - 06 Aug 2018 : 21:09:49 The Competitions Dept recommended the 1500 balance shaft to be used in 1500 and 1700 rally variants. See the Tuning Guide. I used to have a tuned 1730 motor and it too had the 1500 balance shaft. Just to confirm what has already been suggested. |
beardydave | Posted - 06 Aug 2018 : 19:32:14 Sounds ok to me then.
I've got enough to do on that engine without buying more bits. |
TTruckie | Posted - 05 Aug 2018 : 21:55:22 I've got a 1500 balance shaft in my tuned 1700 engine and seams fine. A guy who has rallied V4s for years said he always used 1500 balance shafts. |
melle | Posted - 05 Aug 2018 : 18:11:34 The S&R catalogue prescribes a 1500 balance shaft for a >1700 engine, so should be OK. I'm still not sure what the differences are: http://www.saab-v4.co.uk/speedball/topic.asp?topic_id=33271 I have 1700 balance shafts for sale if you insist on using one, but to be honest I wouldn't bother if you have a good 1500 balance shaft.
