[DeTomaso] 351 C help..

[Daniel C Jones]

> Can anyone please tell me the approx weight of a fully assembled 351C

The below is taken from a factory Ford Engine Detail Weight Report, dated
2/5/69, for an all
cast iron 351C-2V engine prototype with manual transmission.  The total is
597.17 lbs.
Subtracting the weight for the flywheel, exhaust manifolds and starter, I
get 522.72 lbs.
A 4 barrel carb is a bit heavier but an aluminum manifold would be lighter,
etc..
