I have a set of these in stock with the light weight valves and some other tricks, outfitted with springs of your choice if anyone needs them quickly.

They are in a transition right now. Mike Schmidt is stepping down from his position and taking a job at Summit in merchandising from I was told by Greg yesterday who is his replacement.

It took me 4 days to get a hold of them to place my latest cylinder head order.

I believe the standard intake valve weighs 113 grams, the optional hollow stem intake valve weighs 102 grams. Stock GM hollow stem intake valves weigh 89 grams.
