Stop in for a cup of coffee
Yeah, but you are putting a big block in it. That's a 150 lb gain...

Yes but that's stock weight. I'm gonna be running a ton of aluminum
Stock heads: 51 lbs each total 102
Eddy aluminum heads: 26 lbs each, total 52 pounds
Stock exhaust manifolds: 25lbs each, 50 lbs total
Headers: 25 lbs total
Iron intake: 40 lbs
Aluminum intake: 15 lbs
Iron water pump and housing: 20 pounds
Aluminum water pump and housing: 5 lbs.
I also won't be running an A/C compressor that the car originally had, so there's another 20 lbs off the engine:
Tots weight reduction of the 440:
135 lbs.
I'm also saving 100 lbs out of the front suspension and brakes.
Another 105 out of fiberglass bumper, hood, and no hood hinges.
That's 340 lbs , now the roll cage will add probably half that back in, but I'll be in the center of the car.
Plus shaving that much off the unsprung weight both front and rear is gonna help greatly
