Small Block (351W) Weight?

Hey guys, I did several searches and surprisingly enough I couldn't find any help.
I'm wondering how much a 351W weighs. I'm talking total weight of an assembly - block, heads, etc - ready to drop into a truck.
How much less does the smaller-blocked 302 weigh?
Thanks a bunch for any help!

You guys can correct me if I am wrong but I think a 351 is about 60# heavier than a 302 You can get it almost the same weight if you put aluminum heads, intake, Water pump.

I think its around 500-600lbs and there isn't much weight different between a 302 and 351, previous poster is close.


Primary rig is Green Thunder:
95' F-150 XLT 4x4, 302, 5 spd, MSD 6A, Flowmaster Exhaust, Sunroof, Clear corners w/ Diamond headlights, CD player with 2 10" subs and some 32" BFG Muds .

Check out my Gallery for a look-see.

According to another site, less starter/alternator/pulleys, the 351W weighs 510lbs and the 302 weighs 465lbs. An aluminum intake, heads and water pump will drop the 351W down to within 10 lbs of a stock 302.

Thanks to everyone for the replies.
Quantrex, what site is it that you referenced? I'd like to know just for future reference.
So is it safe to assume that a complete 351W with iron heads and iron intake manifold weighs under, say 525 pounds?
Alright thanks again.
