alloy hubs
worthwhile fitting over standard hubs?
is there a big weight saving and i presume they use same bearings?

define big.
if you have the cash, then do it.
lowering unsprung weight is never a bad thing.
seasrch on here ads to which are best - seem to recall some are batter than others.

IIRC alloy uprights and hubs save about 3-4 KG /side
I love Pinto's, even if i did get mine from P&O!
