EVO8 oil pump after 15,000+ miles, short video

This is part of the main engine tear down video we did a few days ago. We accidently fast forwarded through this section and I thought it was worthwhile to have Jarrod cut this portion out and slow it down.

Enjoy:

Where's the techno? Great idea posting videos of your products.

How about one when you rebuild the new engine? and/or another video on your stage 3 head (not exactly sure what this would show)?

The balance shaft removal that you have inside, does that eliminate both the front and rear balance shafts?

You can't possibly tell me the B-shaft eliminator designed by Mitsubishi and used in the 4G61 that last 100k+ miles constantly holds up???

Sorry, just got a laugh out of a thread a while back about how the 4G61 stub shaft is junk...

thats exactly what I had in my 2g awd, and that is exactly what I'll put in my Evo when I get ready to build it. Do they make a OEM balance shaft delete kit for the Evo also (I know they made one for dsms)?

DB is spot on. My oil pump failed within 3500 miles of installing the AMS delete in it. BTW does anyone wanna buy an AMS balance shaft delete...no core LOL BAHAHAHAHA

Hmm weird AMS BSE is junk now?? What a joke! I got over 10,000 miles of 38psi DAILY and 9-9200RPM DAILY use on my AMS engine on E85. Everything seems great to me, engine still runs flawlessly!! Had the head off to put L19s in it at about 8K and everything looked great when we inspected it.

I don't think anybody is saying the machined down B-shaft is junk.

Both sides of the debate have good points.

LOTS of B-shaft bearings seize. It happens. That is the argument for the stub shaft.

If you incorrectly do the T-belt tensioner, you can create a lot of problems on a stock motor, but it's an even bigger issue on the stub shaft. Also, a bearing should ideally never be loaded as to produce a moment on the bearing, and using the stub shaft does just that.

I agree to the fact that no none came right out and said that. But come on were not all clueless enough to believe it wasn't being referred to... or are we?
