Default Dimension wise how do LS motors compare to other smallblocks?

So I'm curious if there's info anywhere that lists the physical size of different smallblock motors. For example I'm curious how a 5.3 compares to a dodge 318 length, width,height and weight wise.
Point me in the right direction if you can
Thanks

Not sure about the 318, But compared to Chevy small blocks, they are a bit shorter in length, width and height.

my ls1 is smaller than the 360 in my R/T but I havent measured them either. Looking in the engine bays, you would think that the ls1 is WAAAY bigger though, haha.
