Engine weight

what's the engine weight on an iron headed 350 long block with an alum intake, no accessories? anybody know? (305 weight will not work), anyone know how much less one weighs after it's been punched 30 and the oil and coolant passages have been cleaned up?

there isn't enough differance in weight to displacement to make it worth considering. a sbc should weight in around 550 pounds

wasn't looking at it from a "how much weight can i lose by hacking up the block" i was looking at how much weight i'd lose by going to an entirely different engine, and i should lose about 130lbs...
