    valvetrain component weights

    I was putting together a few heads today and decided to weigh the pieces I had out. Here are the numbers for the people who are weight conscious.

    (All units are in grams)
    VALVES:
    S.I. "big valves" (44mm,36.8mm)
    Intake - 100, Exhaust - 79

    S.I. +1mm (41mm, 36mm)
    Intake - 91 Exhaust - 80

    factory chrysler
    Intake - 80, Exhaust - 84

    RETAINERS:
    factory chrysler - 26
    chrome moly - 26
    Titanium (from "8valves") - 16

    SPRINGS
    factory chrysler - 78
    Mopar Performance 061 - 84

    LOCKS
    factory chrysler
    Intake set - 3
    Exhaust set - 4
    MP hardened intake set - 3

    ROCKERS
    style 1 (left side in pic) - 76
    style 2 (right side in pic) - 77

    If anyone else has any data to add to this, that would be nice.
