Scott/ Karibian,
The counter weights would be the most expensive parts - getting the rightweight is the most important part. The flex-plate is balanced to itself, I
don't believe the 13B counter weights are the same as the RX8 counter
weights - although I have never weighed them, perhaps Tracy has!?

Bruce told me the Renesis counterweights are different than the 13B.
They are matched to the engine.
