does anyone know why they did this before i call them and want some of my money back
 
That looks kinda crappy. Is this a new, rebuilt, or just a used engine? I thought they sell rebuilt/remanufactured. In which case it could be damage from shipping?

Call tha sonsa'GUns on the phone and get it straigtned out.

What kind of deal did you get from them? I think they advertise here.
 
First off, answer whether it's a 6-bolt. Second, are you calling the balance shafts "slingers"??? If they're not there, that's good. I think Karking eliminates balance shafts. But hey, be glad you didn't end up like me and ordering a motor and having it arrive to find the balance shaft belt had snapped, caused the motor to jump timing and smashed all the intake valves. This was before I installed it by the way.
 
Like Keymaster points out, the first part is the oil pump gear and stub of what was the balance shaft. It's been cut down and the oil passage welded shut. You'll want to pull out the other balance shaft if you put it in the block and make sure you didn't remove the plug on the front cover.

You got the cam gears from a 1G. Again the other guys have pointed out that you should be checking to see if your putting in a 6 bolt engine. If you are you 'll have other issues to address like the mounts.

yeah i called them and they were like

" we dont put the balance shafts in and we dont have the cam gears in stock so we just send a not saying u need to switch them"

and i was like ghey
 
This is a technical forum. You have been given warnings about using proper grammer and you have ignored them.

If you express yourself to the the vendor the way you do here, you won't be taken seriously.
 
sorry i am just a little aggervated latly becuas i have been out of a car for so long now
 
Well, don't take it out on those of us trying to help you. Really doesn't make people very motivated to respond to you.
 
Ok, so what's the question? The balance shafts are already eliminated for you, which saves some work. And those cam gears will work just fine. What's the problem?

edit: Find your damn shift key!

it is a 7 bolt


I'm just trying to be helpful here. You need to use proper grammer, spelling, and punctuation, or you are going to get banned. Take some time and use a dictionary if you have to. Don't be lazy.
