New engine is cast iron block with aluminum heads.
I read (somewhere) that the aluminum block engine is 50 pounds lighter than the 3.2, and the iron block is 50 pounds heavier than the 3.2. All depends on accessories and such of course.
As I'm going to have 345 horsepower instead of 250 I feel I'm going in the right direction regardless of a few added pounds.
