I kept this from some time ago which might help. Weights are in pounds.
I have not included the whole list which is quite long, just the bit you need.

"Engine Weight FYI

It isn't really a Frequently Asked Question, so I'll call it an "FYI", For Your Information. This was originally a list I'd compiled long ago on paper, then moved to the computer, then posted on the net as a response to some questions. It wound up being popular, but since I didn't keep track of the origin of the data there was some debate as to how accurate the list was. This new improved list has origins where I could find references; what doesn't have an origin is stuff from my original list.

You'll sometimes see more than one weight listed. Some weights are for just a long block, some are complete and ready to run, and of course everything in between. Some engines varied in weight during their production runs - for example, some later Chevy V8s use thinwall blocks and aluminum heads.

If you have any figures you'd like to contribute, please send them to me at the email address above........

Depends on year and type. Somewhere between 430 and 480, I would say.

So the "cut & paste" figure I quoted from that article, is about right then .
