On a 427FE it is only around a 27kg saving. I looked at the weight saving between an iron 427 & an alloy 427 block, both engines with alloy heads.
Just did a quick google search:
329kg for 429/460 & 351 Clevelands could be more. I assume iron heads.
236kg for an iron 427FE with alloy heads. 209kg with alloy block.
193kg 302w with alloy heads.
189kg for an LS3.
Interesting.

The last two figures are interesting from my point of view - only 4kgs. Any data on the Ford Coyote weight?
