Google says 351W = 510 lbs, 351C = 550 lbs. That's not too shabby.

Great information! Thanks for the link. Seeing that 420whp engine split in half makes my decision easy.

if you want a 351c there is an old man about 3 miles from my house that has one in his torino, his 66 pony and one on a engine stand, could probly get a decent deal, he said hes never been beaten in the torino and the 66 "won the pro stock shootout every time i entered"
