I weighed the bare iron block today.
148.6 Lbs
The aluminum block?
74.4 lbs.
Thats a 74.2 lbs reduction.
Now that I've honed the cylinder walls and drilled out the extra coolant passage that was needed for the drivers side head, I can start assembling tomorrow.
I installed new rings on the pistons and can't wait to get this going!
