    The best I could find:

    http://www.calorie-counter.net/calor...r-gram-fat.htm

    Calories per Gram of Fat

    There are 9 calories in each gram of fat. Fat contains more than twice the number of calories in carbs or protein.

    All Fat-Calories are Equal

    As all fat contains 9 calories per gram, the type of fat you eat is irrelevant from a weight loss viewpoint. However, from a health viewpoint it is important to reduce your intake of animal fats and replace them with vegetable fats/oils.

    Essential Fatty Acids - Counteract Effect of Calories?

    The Food Pyramid Guidelines and official US Dietary guidelines recommend that all fats should be eaten sparingly. One slight exception to this rule is omega-3 fats, found especially in oily fish (eg. salmon, mackerel, herring) and flaxseed oil. These omega-3 essential fatty acids are high in calories (the same as all fats) but may help to assist weight control and maintain good health. Ideally, substitute these fish or vegetarian fats for those in meat and full-fat cheese.
