are you referring to curb weight? if so you haven't given us near enough info. RC, CC, QC, 4x2, 4x4, etc.....

i suggest you go to www.edmunds.com and search for the configuration of the vehicle in question. they list specs like curb weight, wheelbase, etc...

As the 340 weighed just about 540# complete, taking off 2 cylinders allows me to calculate that the 3.9L-V6 should weigh approx. 400# minimum, probably a little more actually, as that is 75% of the 540 that the 340 weighs. If I were to guess, I would guess 425-450 range.
