Default 4.7 vs HEMI weight & springs on 2wd

Can anyone tell me the difference in weight between the 4.7 and the HEMI?

Did Dodge use the same springs up front on the 2wds for both of these engines?



I'm just trying to figure out how much my HEMI is sitting lower than a truck with the 4.7...

I would guess the weights are within 50-100 lbs of each other.

hemi is 490 or so pounds, the 4.7L just as todd is saying is about right, 400-450 pounds so realy there wouldnt be a difference in the front springs unless your gunna be putting in a V10 which is a good bit more
