Default Flywheel Balance

I'm getting ready to start the build on my new engine, which will be fully internally balanced. I have a Fidanza SM aluminum flywheel and I need to know if I simply remove the bolt on weight on the back of the flywheel is it accurately neutral balanced?

Your machinest should put it on the balancer and check. Mine was close to neutral when I removed the weight but to make perfect it had to be trimmed a few grams..
