Header vs. Manifold Weight Savings?

Just wondering if anybody knows the weight savings going from stock iron 5.7 exhaust manifolds to say Hooker 2055s? Not that I expect it to be huge...just curious. Thanks!

I have flowtechs and over the stock manifold your prolly saving a combinedf 5-6 lbs. Wait till you pull out those manifolds o man you might as well use them for boat anchors.lol

Thanks! I'm trying to lighten the car up without getting carzy. Headers seems like a win/win...
