I heard that "rumor" about a full dress 351 weight compared to a full dress 302 being a 100 pounds difference. It does sound like a lot, but I wouldn't be surprised. I would think a lot of the weight difference would be in major areas like crank, flywheel and heads.

Hadn't thought about the lower profile! Good call, lower center of gravity also, and THATS good for handling! For me, handling FIRST, power second.
