Find another shop !!
Also, 200 grams is close to a 1/2 pound ... did he leave a piston and rod out ?!?!

X2 on another shop. I like light stuff and use a spec 2050 gram crank and we go to 1700 gram bobweights with zero issues. Find another shop !!

He told me that "he has to take 200 grams out of the crank which is almost impossible". A factory 440 has a bobweight over 2700 grams (depending on year etc.) Just reducing all the counterweights from 7.50" dia to 7.44" dia would remove about 200 grams. Alternatively, drilling a 1" dia hole 0.9-inch deep (plus the drill tip) in both the front and rear counterweight will remove about 200 grams. Not a problem at all. I have seen more holes before.
