Default cosworth conrod weights?

any idea how critical the weight of the rods are on a 2wd cossie.im building an engine and one rod weighs 712kilos and the other 728,all other bottom end components are balanced.Will this make much difference?

Them rods are too heavy to start with mate, Them 2 are more than the car.
