    Look at the oil pan, if it has BS's, it will be deep with an angled section, if none, it will have kind of a Crop circle bottom.

    Why remove them?

    No, RPM kills them, not power.

    Take a pic of the pan and post up.

    Thats a 2.5/balance shaft pan.

    non BS has a very defined 'sump' in the center with the drain plug in the back.
