Once it is installed with the stub shaft, gear cover and oil in it, it shouldn't move like that.There’s a video in post 21

Thanks man. Yeah I have it ported now and will open it a bit more too. I’ll probably shape it like yours. Not sure if you’re aware but the 90 ofh increases pressure to begin with. I had 2 1.5mm crush washers on the nut and pressure was great. You can always adjust the pressure. Need more, shim the spring. Need less, shim the nut. I do this with the timing cover off so it’s easy to access.Ok, glad you are aware and that it won't be a problem. I will be in a similar boat as you with oil pressure with the BSE in my build, except my NT block doesn't have oil squirters so I will have to keep an eye on oil pressure as well. I pre-emptively ported my 1990 oil filter housing as much as I felt comfortable with... I'm hoping that my oil pressure stays reasonable. Good luck!You must be logged in to view this image or video.
Right. Just didn’t know if it’s suppose to be that way without being assembled.Once it is installed with the stub shaft, gear cover and oil in it, it shouldn't move like that.
JNZ tuning also sells an OEM "low pressure" spring, should you decide that you need it...Thanks man. Yeah I have it ported now and will open it a bit more too. I’ll probably shape it like yours.

Oh I didn’t know that. I actually removed a mm on my spring by grinding it down a little on both sides.JNZ tuning also sells an OEM "low pressure" spring, should you decide that you need it...
Oil Filter Housing Spring-Low | JNZtuning.com
Lower pressure spring for oil filter housing to help lower high oil pressure. Particularly helpful on cars with removed balance shafts. Your filter housing may still require porting even with this spring.jnztuning.com
Yeah that spring is from other cars. That would basically have the same effect as shimming.JNZ tuning also sells an OEM "low pressure" spring, should you decide that you need it...

Yup. If you grinded down the spring 1mm and shimmed, then you’d basically have the same result as the shorter spring, which I measured to be about 2.8mm shorter than the regular one.Yeah that spring is from other cars. That would basically have the same effect as shimming.
In my case, one washer lowered approximately 10 psi on high side pressure. I have added 2 more washers.Yup.

I've left the tensioner in place (with no belt) before, but in this build I decided to run a shorter bolt with some RTV on it. Should be fine either way.For the balance shaft tensioner bolt hole, do you leave it or run a shorter bolt?
Think I’ll run a short bolt too with a copper crush washer (to not score it) and loctite.I've left the tensioner in place (with no belt) before, but in this build I decided to run a shorter bolt with some RTV on it. Should be fine either way.You must be logged in to view this image or video.
Good to know!If you don't put a bolt back in that hole, you will be chasing a oil leak. It is right between the 2 oil passages and WILL leak if you don't plug it. Simple RTV works fine so I suppose a crush washer and thread locker would work....but I would put some sealer on it.
My 1st DSM, the "Army Mechanics" didn't put anything back in that hole and I chased that oil leak for a month, but I didn't know diddly squat about DSM's then.
Marty, no oil passage for the bs tensioner bolt hole.If you don't put a bolt back in that hole, you will be chasing a oil leak.

Wrong bolt holes. The tensioner pulley hole is the one you need to address. Your pic shows the two hydraulic tensioner bolt holes.Marty, no oil passage for the bs tensioner bolt hole.You must be logged in to view this image or video.
Just lined up the front case. It’s the correct hole. Engine is horizontal in the previous pic.Wrong bolt holes. The tensioner pulley hole is the one you need to address. Your pic shows the two hydraulic tensioner bolt holes.
Whoa...weird angle. Anyway it isn't an oil passage. It's a through hole directly into the crankcaseJust lined up the front case. It’s the correct hole. Engine is horizontal in the previous pic.

The one marked with the BLUE arrow is the one you need a bolt in Tony.Just lined up the front case. It’s the correct hole. Engine is horizontal in the previous pic.

Right but it’s not an oil galley. I’m guessing the bolt needs to be installed for the front case to seal against the block.The one marked with the BLUE arrow is the one you need a bolt in Tony.

Damn it! Should have picked one up. Parts should be delivered today, so I'll probably just roll with the stock sprocket. Thanks for sharing that!Thought about this too and wanted to show you while you were in there. I have one somewhere, to replace the balance sprocket on the crank.

No I just flipped the two bearings for the front BS and left out the rear BS bearing for obvious reasons. When I looked at the kit, it came with 3 bearings. I only ordered the stub shaft & plug.Did they just send you the complete bearing set? I got one that way.
