Yeah Bill, and I've got a bridge in Brooklyn you can buy----or maybe IH
included heads, and exhaust and intake manifolds in the category of
"accessories" when they quoted that weight!!

I (and my engine stand) would believe more like 840.6 lbs  undressed!! An
IH SV 345/392  intake manifold ALONE and BARE  contains  65 lbs of road
hugging, cast iron weight!
