Default Can anyone tell me???

I want to know if all the late model chevy motors are externally or internally balanced. I was told by a machinist that the flywheels are factory spec'd to a certain balance and that they are not perfectly balanced. Is this true?

thanks

Flywheels are rotationally balanced (kinda like a tire/wheel)..
