Enjoy :-) Most every one who has disabled the Balancers on an Autobox 2.3 Saab engine genuinely regrets it. The silly Balancers are barely effective at smoothing the motor.. as is.
Possibly you have one of the new 'improved' :-) GM motors? You know, the ones with the errr.. cheapened (oops lightened) for less vibration And durability innards?
