    Personally 100 lbs "sounds" about right. Thought 65 sounded low, but
    thought 170 was high too.

    For as cheap as you can get iron truck blocks for I just dont see paying
    extra for the aluminum. Maybe in a drag car where you're counting 10th's
    but dont see the difference in a 5,000 lbs truck.
    what he sead if you had a race car it would be one thing but you have a 4x4 truck

    Can I vote twice? 100 is the closest answer... there, I'm stuffing the ballot boxes.
    Maybe I should take some pics of me weighing them next time I have a bare iron block to weigh, the 2 I have right now still have cranks, cams and covers on them.
