I'm sure it's 200-250 heavier than a chevy 350. I'd say 600-700 .

enough to stop your boat floating away is all i know

30kg lighter than a 350 which iS 550lb with cast ex and inlet manifolds, from my deep dark memoery bank.....

So long ago my memory was in DOS to recall that I think...... hence the kg vs lb weights, my conversion wont do DOS....

SBC is 200 lbs lighter than 2F. That is installed total vehicle weight difference.

Its funny to see peoples reactions when they find out a cruiser I-6 weighs 200 pounds more than the engine in a Suburban.

My 74 40 runs a 74 SBC. The I-6 puked it's guts. The chev I took my V8 from rusted to death but could still pull your house off the foundation.

Sure Junk didn't get his hands on it before you? He's about the only person I know that can kill a Toyo I-6.
