At the moment, I am unable to find it...maybe it is at the office. Anyway, there exists a website that provides physical descriptions of the more popular engines.

As memory serves, the 429/460 engine ranks as the largest (dimensionally), and heaviest of those that were described. Interestingly, the 289/302 are the smallest/lightest. So, a 302 is almost 100 lbs lighter than a chevy 350, and a 460 is about 50 lbs heavier than a chevy 454.

Certainly a consideration for these small cars.

Tomorrow, I'll try to find the website and post it.
