Default Federal-Mogul Valves?

I need replacement valves for my 99ls1 so i had napa order me the complete set of Federal-Mogul valves. The intake valves look nice, but the exhaust valves are heavy and thick compared to the stockers. Should i ditch them? I dont have a big budget and get a discount there so all 16 were under 100. I like the manley stuff but its atleast 300 for a set.

Weigh them and then make your decision.

An OEM exhaust valve weighs 88 grams.

An OEM intake valve weighs 103 grams
