RE: [DML] replacement short block question - what works

["Marc A. Levy" <malevy@xxxx>]

I am pretty sure the DMC does not have the balancer either. There are
only a few PRV-V6 setups with the balancer.

The Eagle is a even fire motor where the DMC is odd fire, so if you are
going to use the DMC heads, you will need to use the eagle cams. OR,
you can use the DMC heads with the DMC crank (if it will fit).

There was a lot of discussion about this a few weeks back, you may want
to check the archives.

Subject: [DML] replacement short block question - what works



well it turns out my "tap" is a "rap" and i gotta either split the 
block and take a peek or drop a new one in, i have an opportunity to 
pick up a short block from an 89 Eagle premier ES with low mileage, 
this is a 3.0l block and i have been informed that "engine doesn't 
have balancer shafts" whatever that might mean, i know i have to keep 
my old oil pan, but will i need to do a head transplant?
