Hi,
I am not very trusting of the food/postal scale, which does not seem to have the accuracy that I would trust in removing material, so hence the question. Should I grind to get them spot on or would I gain enough to take the time/chance? I have put many engines, air cooled small engines and water cooled automobile engines together but this is my first "Performance" engine.
Or should I grind to remove weight? Which then leads to the question of where to remove the weight?
I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

Piston weight and position on engine
Re: Piston weight and position on engine
I am curious as to how you handled this, did you grind weight off? or just position them as you mentioned?
