New Rods Do i need to Balance the Rotating Assem.

Just wanted to see what everybody thought. Im going from a stock rod to a SCAT H-BEAM but im keeping everything else the same, the same mahle pistons, crank, etc. Do i need to have my rotating assembly balanced and rotated again?

Thanks in advance

especially if you have a high rpm application...even a few grams at 6000+ rpms can rip your motor apart
