Default Post your grams...

I would like to start making a database of part weights, gram wise..

stock rods,
aftermarket rods,
stock pistons
aftermarket pistons
rocker arms
cranks
valves
valve springs,

if anyone has any off hand, or wants to team up with me in making this database, think it could be of some use to tunners. Maybe a shop that sells parts wouldn't mind popping open a few boxes and whipping out that gram scale... hehe


The list so far...

Stock
h22
inner and outer spring = 49.5 gr
retainer = 12.9 gr
intake valve = 52.8 gr
exhaust valve = 47.2 gr
seat 8.6 gr
keepers(set of 2) = 0.95 gr
primary rocker = 88.9 gr
mid rocker = 98.1 gr
secondary rocker = 89.9 gr
LMA = 20.8 gr

Rocket Motorsports
h22
inner and outer spring = 47.2 gr
retainer = 7.6 gr

gsr
Carrillo Pro-A GSR rods 406gr
Wiseco 82mm 5cc pistons 273gr

- Integra Type R connecting rods (rod bolts/nuts - no bearings) -

So what exactly are "Tunner pistons" and "Tunner rods?" I've never heard of that brand.

It would help if you spelled "tuner" right....but it's kind of a taboo word now. I cringe when people ask me if I drive one of those "Tuner Cars"

ill start ya off here. this is all H22 stuff

Stock

inner and outer spring = 49.5 gr
retainer = 12.9 gr
intake valve = 52.8 gr
exhaust valve = 47.2 gr
seat 8.6 gr
keepers(set of 2) = 0.95 gr

primary rocker = 88.9 gr
mid rocker = 98.1 gr
secondary rocker = 89.9 gr
LMA = 20.8 gr

Rocket Motorsports

inner and outer spring = 47.2 gr
retainer = 7.6 gr

there can be over a grams variation with the rocker arms.

id say the crank. Its the only piece of the rotating assembly which you can REALLY drop some weight.

The difference is just the part number in the rods, but the K20A has a higher dome on the pistons which would be the reason for higher compression..

Crower Maxi-light rods.. claimed weight 462gm actual 464gm
CP 12.5:1 piston claimed weight 294gm actual 294gm.. plus a 72gm pin makes total piston weight of 366gm..

All pistons where weighed with pins in, and all rods weighed with bolts in..

Otherwise when I get home I can dig up some other numbers for H22 clutch/FW stuff

Quick question so I can add to this thread.

Where are you guys buying your scales?

I would prefer to find one that reads to 0.1 g's, but you all seem to only use 1.0 g increments.

Just pick one up from Radio Shack/Circuit City? Or do you go to one of your local "medicinal purposes only" smoke shops

so let me get it straight, a bunch of you pot dealers got bored and started weighing out car parts on your digital scales??

Blake thats a harsh generalization, rods and pistons are equally as viable to drop weight from the rotating assembly IMO.

H22
H22 OEM organic clutch disk: 1137g
H22 OEM clutch pressure plate: 5205g

K20A
RBC intake manifold 4077g chopped to fit K20A head (3941g shaved)
PRC intake manifold 4462g stock

Tilton cerametalic twin disk for K-series:
Flywheel: 2835g
clutch disks (both): 961g
basket/pressure plate(s): 2455g
total assembly weight: 7155g

That's what I got right now. I could dig up F23 and H23 stuff but no one cares about nonVTEC
