bare 300 weight
I know it's been asked before, but couldn't find it in a search: What's the 300 weigh? bare long block. Anybody got a pretty close number?

I can only tell you what my COMPLETE engine weighed when it was shipped to me across the country: 600 pounds.
Do the math...

I posted this a while back, and found it, but I don't know how to link it. The long block came to 386 lbs, and with all the normal accessories, it was 504 lbs. I arrived at this by weighing all the components on an accurate balance scale, then added it all up.

Thanks. I ended up removing the head and pulling the short block, so I'm guessing it at about 300 or just over.

Yeah, I felt that. Pulled the head with the exhaust manifolds and lower intake attached. Should be able to walk straight in a week or so. LOL.
