Engine Weights
Engine Weights
info database.
This should be all the info you need to determine if the flathead you just bought
really will fit
into your neighbor�s minivan. (Please warn him first!)
You'll sometimes see more than one weight listed. Some weights are
for just a long block, some are complete and ready to run, and of
course everything in between. Some engines varied in weight during
their production runs - for example, some later Chevy V8s use thinwall
blocks and aluminum heads.
If you have any figures you'd like to contribute, please send them to
