Oddly enough, it doesn't matter - the Zencart weight units are just that, units. It doesn't matter what you call them.

gotcha. i guess the real question is...can the real-time UPS calculator be set to use ounces rather then lbs?

UPS and USPS expect to get the weight broken into proper pounds and ounces ...

You can run your shop any way you want on the weight, but you have to translate that weight properly for the UPS and USPS shipping modules ... and probably any other real time quote shipping module such as FedEx and the like ...
