Default LS engine dimensions?

Anyone know offhand or have a link to a reference for the dimensions of the LS engines? Including weight, fully dressed?

Thinking about my '93 notchback. Doing some comparing of various engines.

Yeah, sorry about the searching. I have a few feelers out on several forums and wanted to get semi-related information on the swap that I mentioned, while also getting that dimension info.

And doing all that on dial-up is pretty taxing, haha. So I opted for the lazy way. Who knows, sometimes interesting aside information comes up. That's why we're on public message boards, right?

Thanks for the posts and also those blown-up pics. Those are great. Took me 20 minutes to download but worth it, thank you!

We're just finishing off a swap of an LS1&T56 into a 1985 BMW E30 (325). Just before stuffing the engine & tranny in, we weighed it on 3 scales, each under the mounting point. The engine had intake, harness, front-end accessories and mounts on it. Weight was 260lbs each side on the engine mounts, and 83lbs on the tranny mount. So all-up weight was 603lbs. Link to pics:

go to the bottom of the page for the pics of the weights
