Undersquare vs. Oversquare Engines
I wonder what effect the comparative mass of the rotating assemblies (namely crankshaft) would have on horsepower production.
What does a BB crank weigh?
FWIW my 5.9 magnum weighed 498 lbs when I brought it home. The Eddy heads are right at 50 pounds lighter than the stock Magnum heads.
I've been told 720 for a BB with aluminum manifold, but that's hearsay, not gospel. Could they really be 200+ pounds heavier? Right on the nose of the car?
I know a Ford FE goes about 650, which is about 150 more than a 351 (Windsor).
