I got my eagle rods (h beam) in today.... im about to order the pistons

the motor is pulled apart already and i dropped the block crank and head off to be cleaned up and worked over. They will need my pistons to balance the crank though... do you think its neccasary for that honestly? i have the eagle rods which seem pretty light and the Weisco pistons im ordering now. so i dont know what they will have to do to the crank but ill see... Its at a local speed shop... these guys are well known and do good work so i guess ill see what happens
Pics will be up tonight or tomorrow

which speed shop.............car shop or that place on 23rd? not sure how they are with 4cyl but i know the car shop does good work. Tim and/or jim will work with ya. The car shop has done stuff for my old 71 and the 72.
