All aluminum FE weight
 
Hi all,

I just weighed my FE with all accessories, starter, flywheel, carb, expansion tank, and alternator. It is an all aluminum 482, Pond block from Keith Craft. No oil or antifreeze and it weighed 487 pounds.

I remember back when you wanted 1 horsepower per cubic inch. This is 1 pound per cubic inch. I am very happy with this. This works out to be about 1.4 HP per pound.

Hope this info is helpful,


JGC

I figured around 500#. Which rods, crank, pistons. heads, and intake did you use? You have 680hp?

Hi David,

This was built by Keith Craft and 680+HP is what his dyno showed. Scat crank & rods with Diamond pistons. Ram aluminum flywheel, factory alternator, and expansion tank.
