SB Chevy's...depending on how much auxiliairies are included...can weigh 420-450 lbs ...cast iron block with aluminum heads. Radiators/alternators and such add weight , which makes the comparison to 911 engines at nominal 450 lbs interesting since they include the cooling system ( fan /shroud, alternator, etc)..

Still, the SB is remarkably light and compact for its displacement...
