BBC weight?
What does a dressed big block weigh? 500lbs? 700lbs?

I remember that 1200 number from the merc brochures. Even without the drive the still sounds heavy.

Re: BBC weight?
It seems like my numbers were correct, but I still think it sounds heavy.
I had a 454" in a car a couple of years ago, and that motor was 700lbs w/o exhaust.

Well that's the reason! You're talking 454 and the rest of us are talking 540's and 572's! It's the extra cubes that are adding the weight!
Anyways, thanks for your help guys.
