Weights were

TH350 short tail- 125 lbs.
TH400- 134 lbs.
4L80E- 178 lbs.

A TH400 DOES NOT weight 30 lbs more. You are hearing that from the "internet experts" that likely couldn't identify the difference between a TH350 and TH400 if both were sitting side by side.
Once ONE idiot says it on the internet it becomes fact. Like a TH400 consuming xx more HP than a TH350 etc..
A TH400 is about 10 lbs heavier and the 10 lbs is in the rotating weight. Mostly the planetary sets.
He says about ~45 but the '80 was not a fresh rebuild.
