BTW...it is a FORGED factory crank..so it's an internally balanced engine from the factory.



And that's the way it should be when your machinist is done . If he wants the balancer to confirm that is it truly neutral then that is one thing but if he is planning to balance the crank with it attached to the crank then that is something I would be questioning no matter who the builder is.

As far as the rods being out 5 grams , NOW you know why you got a GOOD DEAL on them .
