Not sure about that 17lb starter either. (maybe it just seems like more when your on your back trying to hold it in place while getting a bolt started)
That hi-po job evidently got the benefit of the PI intake. I think that 17 lb. number is pretty close -- I've got that monster starter on my FE. You could shave 10 lbs. off right there. Ronbo, you've got the aluminum block, don't you? You're probably down in the low 500's.
