Racin_Jason Posted March 9, 2001 Share Posted March 9, 2001 I'm guessing they would weight about 2650 with an iron headed Chevy 350/auto trans. So whats the scoop on the weight in different configurations of the Chev-V8 240's? Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John C Posted March 9, 2001 Share Posted March 9, 2001 If I remember correctly my 71 240 weighed 2630 with an aluminum headed 406 small block and a 700 R4 trans. John C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racin_Jason Posted March 9, 2001 Author Share Posted March 9, 2001 Wow...feathery! Ok then whats the difference in weight between iron heads and aluminum heads? 700r4 and th350? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John C Posted March 10, 2001 Share Posted March 10, 2001 I think around 25 to 30lbs heavier for the cast heads.The 350 turbo I think is around 30lbs lighter,never weighed them on a scale though. John C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLKMGK Posted March 14, 2001 Share Posted March 14, 2001 John - that's probbaly 25-30lbs EACH for the heads. Aluminum heads weigh in pretty light compared to iron and on the Fords they're supposed to save at least 75lbs or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Rick Johnson Posted March 15, 2001 Share Posted March 15, 2001 John C. - My 240 with a 383 and aluminum heads also weighs 2630 - without gas and driver. Our scales must be accurate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
