how much does a stock block weigh¿ this shortblock checked in at 325lbs

the clutch is a stage 3+, its supposed to be a little lighter feeling than the 3 with enhanced performance, but i may have to switch to an auto eventually due to bad knees

What are you going to put on there so that you actually need a dart block?
