well the effen guy charged me 200 just to do the 2.3 Quad oil pump swap, so in order to remove the balance shaft and run the car without it you must do the 2.3 oil pump swap.

considering the machining and making sure the new oil hole is at the right angle and the being able to do it right $200 is a fair price. The cost is more of engineering rather than actual machine time.
