Default Whol has weighed an Iron/Alum block?
Has anyone actually weighed one, back to back on the same scale?

I've heard 80 to 140 lbs and I want to know what it really is.

FWIW - people say the LT1 is 75lbs heavier on the nose because of the iron block - I know it's a totally different engine, that's why - FWIW
