Balancing the whole rotating assy. includes weight matching the pistons, and rods. After the rods/pistons are weight matched the weight of the rings and berrings plus the weight of the pistons/rods and then that ammount of weight is put on the crank and the machinest grinds or welds material to the crank/balancer/and flywheel
It is really better to balance the whole assy. it normally doesn't cost too much when weighed to it's advantages. I paid $150 to have my assy. computer balanced.
