300lb 5.0L Ford Engine?

[tb30570]

The Ford Aluminum Man O' War Cylinder Block is 110 lbs less than the iron block 302 Windsor. Aluminum cylinder heads are said to remove 50 lbs vs. iron. According to gomog, a 302 is 460 lbs. With aluminum heads and block, it supposedly weights 300 lbs. That's 61lb/L...I find that hard to believe.

No such thing as a 5.0/302 Windsor. They only had the Windsor stamp on a 351.
