rod weight ?

The motor will never notice it, if it bothers you though just have it corrected. Back in the early 70s when money was scarce for me I ran my BB Chryslers with unballanced parts and always turned them 7K in the lights, the motors ran as smooth as the ballanced ones.When I started working in a machine shop in the mid/late 70s I couldn't believe how out of ballance the stock BB Chyslers were. 4 grams is nothing to worry about IMO.
