I just weighed a 327 fully assembled head at 45 lbs.
The heads of a small block Chevy 350 engine weigh approximately 50 pounds. The use of aluminum over cast iron reduces their weight slightly.

The weight of a small block Chevrolet cylinder head is 65 ft-lbs. Refer to your owner's manual or seek the help of a car expert if necessary. Obviously the above person didn't understand the question. A cast iron cylinder head, fully assembled, for a small block Chevy weighs 49 pounds. A cast aluminum head weighs 25 pounds.
