The Stock A.I.R. valve is heavier, as you can see below.
I weighed both valves with and without a stock Long Nose bolt, with bolt spring, and used a digital scale to do so, and show weight in both grams and ounces.
---Stock Valve---
Without Bolt & Spring:
380g or 13.4oz
With Bolt & Spring:
446g or 15.7oz
---ReTro Valve---
Without Bolt and Spring:
310g or 10.9oz
With Bolt & Spring:
376g or 13.3ozComment

I am pretty sure the back half of the RT valve is aluminum, so it would make sense that it was lighter. The normal AIR valve is all steel.Che guevara
