My aluminum fly is also just a tad north of 11 lbs. too. The stocker is close to 25 pounds, I believe.

When I switched, I noticed no gains in the 1/4, however I only got to race it once with a horrible 60' time of 2.2+ - so it's difficult to say with any degree of certainty.

Any loss of reciprocating weight is a good thing. The 'loss' of torque that some people talk about, well, I didn't notice anything significant.

With my 331 build-up, my crank is now 55 lbs, so the aluminum fly helps to bring down total reciprocating weight - we'll see.
