800 grams typical, but this can vary significantly either way, say, +\- ~15 grams from rod-to-rod.

Thanks for the reply Paul. I'm looking at putting a 429 budget build together and using the SIR6605FP Eagle rods instead of resizing and new rod bolts the stock rods. Worried about balance. Engine is going to have a C-460 cam because I have that and using ported CJ heads. Wanting to keep the rpms below 6000 but still have a reliable and fun bracket engine.
