Novsight sent this product for me to review but I'm not going to be nice to it. What should we do to really find out if this thing is worth you getting? https://amzn.to/4nT8jMY

Badlandindustries.com Performance and reliability both on and off road. Colorado, Canyon, H3, Trailblazer and MORE! I've rebuilt a ton of these 4 and 5cyl "Atlas" motors and on thing seems true. the 4200 4.2l found in the trailblazers seem to have a much lower failure rate than the 4 and 5cyl cousins. Why is this.......? ? ? ? .......Balance shafts By deleting them you increase felt vibration a little at lower rpm but since the rotating assembly is balanced anyway the motor runs as you'd expect a 5cyl motor or an over square 4cyl would. This the only balance shaft delete kit in the world for these motors and we already have an install running north of 700whp in Nivlac57's Fairmont. Sufficient to say this kit has been tested thoroughly. If you want to free up a bit of power, increase reliability or maybe you just want the weight reduction this kit will do exactly all of those things. https://www.badlandindustries.com/product-page/atlas-4-5cyl-balance-shaft-delete-kit-2-8-2-9-3-5-3-7l-2004-12

I designed the protective shipping tray with the same accuracy as the balance shaft delete bushings. These balance shaft delete bushings allow you to completely remove the very thing trying to destroy your motor. these block off the oil galleys that used to feed the balance shafts. By blocking them off and removing the shafts we reduce the weight, free up power and increase reliability. You can find these and all the other parts we make for Colorados, Canyons, Hummer H3 and more at badlandindustries.com.

buy a motor or some other parts to improve the reliability of your truck so i can afford a shop.

never break a head bolt again with this one simple trick

Balance lines help keep the motor properly lubricated so that there's no dead ends and even flow throughout the motor.

Check out BADLANDINDUSTRIES.com to increase performance and reliability of your Colorado, Canyon and H3 buloth on and off road. Other 5cyl teardown videos really don't explain why these motors fail, how they fail, and what you can do to prevent it. These 4 and 5 cylinder motors were found in the Colorado, Canyon, Hummer H3 and even the Isuzu I-series while third big brother the Atlas 4200 4.2 i6 was found in the Trailblazer, Envoy, Bravada, and even in the Saab 9-7x. Why is it we don't see as many failures in the I6 as we do the I4 and I5? What power can we expect out of the 4 and 5 cyl now that we're seeing 800+whp out of the 4.2l? I've rebuilt a bunch of these motors and have a very clear cause of failure I want to share with you guys. Hopefully you can follow some of the tricks and maybe install some of the parts we've developed to make sure your motor keeps running well for many years to come. To improve the oiling where we see the most common failure these oil lines will increase flow and improve lubrication. ~ https://www.badlandindustries.com/product-page/supplimental-oil-feed-line-4-5-and-6cyl-atlas-engines We find the balance shaft bearings are the main cause of failure and as such if you have any hope of installing a turbo or simply don't ever want to deal with bearing failure ever again check out our delete kit ~ https://www.badlandindustries.com/product-page/atlas-4-5cyl-balance-shaft-delete-kit-2-8-2-9-3-5-3-7l-2004-12 Harmonic balancer 3 jaw puller ~ https://amzn.to/46jRNOc just make sure you trim it down a little to clear the oil pump housing. I have a couple shirts available that might help you guys confuse your friends with your 5cyl motor. ~ https://www.badlandindustries.com/misc
