All good advice. The bolts that hold the weights are in tension and depending on the bolt size, the tensile strength far exceeds the amount of weight being exerted on the bolt. Never thought about the weld only being to keep the weight from moving. As far as rebalancing the crank, the engine is currently apart doing a complete clean up and resurfacing the valve seats, and reworking the one guide that came out. I am now inclined to take the advice on here and reassemble the engine as it is. Do not want to go through the expense of a balance job.
