Balance shaft delete
So i was reading about the ams balance shaft delete kit and thought I may be able to cut down my factory balance shaft on a lathe. does anyone have the cut shaft that could give me accurate measurements. thanks

i dont need the stock ones, i just need the measurements of a machined shaft. i have a pretty good idea of how much i need to take off and where, but i would like to be 100% sure before i start cutting. if mine come out on the money i may be able to do it for people who are interested
I had mine cut down. I didn't give the machine shop a dimension, just told them to take it down so that gray dull material is all gone and all that left was shiny metal. In other words, maximum diameter while still removing all the counter balance weight. If you have it done this way, then you can take the measurement.

interesting...im putting the part in pro-e now, i will remove material until i get the part to 405g -just like the ams one.
once again, if anyone has the finished part, and can give me hard numbers, id really appreciate it.
