update : balance shaft belt went kplop and got tangled in timing. with NO damage to head or other components. YES!!! currently have timing in pieces awaiting a new timing belt and tensioner. wondering if balance shaft removal is possible with only access to timing side of engine or do i need to yank the whole operation outta there. because if so i would like to pull em now instead of later. someone with some nobility step in and set me straight. thx guys.

If you're going to pull the assembly while on the car, i recommend taking out the drivers side motor mount. It gives much easier access to the lower portion of the timing side of the motor while it's sagging. Good luck
