I see what your reading, but have doubt. If anything the 8400lb should be even less since the invent of the vacuum bagging process. Nada even shows 8400lbs for the 358... Shoot an email to sonic, check with Bruce there. I believe their current literature to be wrong... Again, Bruce will be able to definitively answer this question.

That cannont be correct. I spoke to Mark Bently (when he was a dealer for Sonic) a few years back. He said Jay Ross and he took a 45SS 3-500'S a generator, no water, a 1/4 tank of gas weighted 12,080 LBS. on the scales at lake X. I believe that a complete engine and drive package weights somewhere in the 1,300 LBS. range.
