Seems no one here clarifyed the answer to his question.

You shave the RODS not the pistons.
There is NO need to "balance" everything afterwards

Just what the hell are you asking here? PR3 and P30 "rods" would be identical... In fact, I don't think there is such a thing as P30 rods, they would simply be P30 rods. Same with PCT, no such rod with that part number... You listed a bunch of PISTON part numbers asking which one of them would need to be shaved. Agian, you are not shaving the piston, you shave the rod. Only needed on the B16/B17 setups.

As far as I know, none of them require modification. I know for a fact the B18c's do not require any work.
