Balance effected by new pistons??

Can I replace my 30-over hyper pistons with 30-40 over forged pistons and not effect the balance job prev done?? (Assuming all the pistons weigh the same)

Seems like I should be able to, but wasn't sure.

if you replace them as a set you should be ok for most applications, if you want you can always balance the pistons to each other before you install them
