Default What does your 1st gen LSx swap weigh?

I've been looking around for different weights on 1st gens and have come up with a range of 2880lbs (OHC I6) to 3260 (400 Pontiac) for my firebird. Those are just highs and lows of what i have found. I was curious if anyone has weighed their swap. I know the 400 i took out of my firebird weighed about 760lbs. The ls1 with alternater only weighs right around 400lbs that im putting back in it.

What Ignition setup are you running? MSD or Edelbrock?

So do you adjust your timing curve with the MSD sofware and MAP sensor? Where'd you get your MAP sensor?
