I have heard that a stock 440 is only 50 lbs heavier than a stock slant six. Anybody know if it is true or not ?



I don't know about that. While slants are fat for what they are, stock front torsion bars on slant cars are MUCH less beefy that stock torsion bars on BB cars. I would say it's probably more like a slant would be near 50lbs to a stock SB.
