Weight of 300D engine - which stand to use

I am about to put my 1980 300D engine on an engine stand for
a tear down and rebuild.
How heavy is this engine ? The stand I have now is rated for 750 pounds.
I can get a stronger stand if needed.
I seem to remember that a 454ci Chevy was in the 680 pound range.
This 300D seems a little lighter than that .

Any ideas from anyone ?

Thanks
