" Of all the warped 196 heads I've seen, I've never even HEARD of a
" warped block. That's a huge chunk of iron, a bare 196 six block
" easily weighs as much as a 70s Ford 302 V-8 block (I know that from
" experience -- had to move the 302 block from bro's engine stand to
" build a 196 OHV once).

comparing the weights of the '65 196 and '66 199 americans, the 196 is
a few lbs heavier than the 199/232.  the same front springs are used
both years, suggesting similarity.
