Actually you'll be quite surprised as sometimes a set of pistons is out the window in regard to balance. Same goes for rods can't assume anything unless they say balanced then still don't believe it.
You'll notice in the photos above that pistons are out 6.6 grams.
This weight is out of the box and juggled wrist pins to get the best weight before metal removal.
Sometimes they're really good and then really bad.
Rods we try to keep them together as sets but lately alot of the threads are being damaged by people unknowingly overtightening the nuts.
We have to weight match the rods best we can before we even can pour them. To make the balancing work easier.
