The first PPAP I6 sleevless blocks have been cast & machined for the 400+, and assembled to lowers, maybe something by Miami?

300r HD is 546lbs or so not including steering. With steering closure to 570lbs. Weight may also be dry. Still lighter than the 400r.

Which is 668 lbs. dry?

If a 4.6L V* is lighter then the small 400r Verado that is pretty impressive.
What are the real weights of the 400R and the New V8's?

It's not like the 400s are little. My son in this picture is over 6'3" and 250lbs.
