Northman Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 From my experience, the balance shafts will not cause a vibration when out of adjustment. The will only cause noise (rattling if loose, and whining if too tight). Even at it's worst it's not very audible, either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in PA Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 I hate trying to diagnose noises from afar. What scares me is you only hear it when warm. Do you know what rod knock sounds like? Can any of you guys in Phoenix give it a listen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrxxquad Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 i had to run a oil guage because the light is only about 5 psi to turn off damaged two cranks and rods because of oil sloshing away from pickup when i turn and stop with the short pan like the efr racing pan. he had me run his relief valve and tighter bearing clearances than stock and 100 psi and still killed one. had to build a baffel to dampen the slosh and install a canton oil accumlator on the third rebuild and have not had any trouble. elton says that number three rod can starve if you do wheelies or stoppies????? been doing any showing off???? also run 20 50 oil real was not any vibration...... ,,,,,,but was when i had dirty injectors and a knock too?????

Northman Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Sounds like that EFR "racing" pan is a quality piece of work What makes it a racing pan, anyway? Shorter for more ground clearance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbrxxquad Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 yes ,about 1 inch thick from block and billitt,but i could not use it cause i needed the oil cooling lines that his required to be plugged. so i cut a damaged pan and made the whole bottom flat and cut the pickup and the relief valve. the problem was the stock relief valve was to low psi and after the first damaged motor elton thought it was the problem. he was real nice to have helped me do what i was doing. was refered by kent stotz, it is what he uses. main difference is i dont have gravity working to keep the oil in the pan with a quad layout. lateral g's not vertical. stan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
