Do i have to press the bearings into the block? MY friend told me that the rear silent shaft bearing has to be pressed into the block! The reason i ask is because when i go my oil pan off, the silent shaft bearing was in the bottom. Thanks, matt

Because if you don't cut it and plug it perfectly, you will get extra vibrations on the oil pump sprocket which could either lead to oil pump failure or timing belt problems. It has happened in the past with guys trying the same thing you are suggesting. It has even rarely happened to guys with uneven casting flaws on the eliminator kit stub shaft according to guys on dsmtalk. You're free to believe what you want though. I'm just relaying info that I've learned in the past. I paid a whopping 20 bucks for my eliminator kit when I rebuilt my engine, and haven't had any problems. 20 bucks seems like affordable insurance considering the consequences.
I don't get it. In one thread you have a problem with the Blaha mod because its free and "unreliable". In this thread you have a problem with the conventional eliminator kit for basicly the opposite reasons. It costs money and is conventional even though its cheap and has been proven to work in the past. If I didn't know better, I'd just say you were a typical Honda guy thriving on conflict.
