With, of course, just as you weight the connecting rods with their hardware.
I was not questioning your abilities.
and yes measured with respective hardware of course. I always measure things, rods end to end etc.
I was asking were you able to weigh the gudgeon pins? was there a difference between them? and would swapping them about have helped?
I recognize this a moot question as all is now well with the replacements.

Quite honestly it never occurred to me to swap the pins around.
