For a TR6, my Carillos are 443g each, compared with stock rods at
698g each, and lightened stock about 600g each (includes ARP bolts).

JE +0.047" are 290g each, compare with AE Hepolite +0.030" at 410g each
(includes wrist pins and plugs).

I wonder if the rotational mass of a TR4 motor could be greater than the 6?
After all, the rubber TR6 crankshaft has to weigh less than Uncle Jack's 
flash
new steel crank from Moldex.
