Default I6 200 weight vs. 302 weight

just wondering if any one knows off hand the difference in weight between these two pieces. i've upgraded the suspension for the v8, but the car is going to get registered with the straight 6 while i build up the 302. and I'm just wondering what the difference in front ride height will be with a repositioned global west upper control arm and grab a trak 620 coil and 1" sway bar setup.

I didnt change upper control arms but I did put in the 620's and the 1 1/8 sway bar and I have 14in tires heres a pic to look at the height.
as for weight difference a 302 is about 200 lbs more.

The 200 6 banger weighs 385 lbs., and the 289-302 weighs 460 lbs. A difference of 75 pounds if my elementary school arithmetic still serves me well.
