[Roadsters] Still need U2O rods

[Mark Sedlack]

see if you can balance the rotating parts as assemblies - i.e. rods, pins, 
pistons, & rings together.

You can mix & match parts to help reduce the differentials.  For example, 
group the lightest piston with the heaviest rod and vice versa.  you might 
find the assembly weights close enough to allow removal of an acceptable 
amount of material to balance them all.  Pistons typically have weight 
blocks cast in where quite a bit of material can be removed. Not sure if 
this is the case on U20 though.
