A "bare" block is like 120lbs. No answer for a complete engine

I did a search and the thread said 400 to 425 lbs. I guess thats close enough for what I need.
Thanks

Is it really that heavy? Heads are 50 together, that means the shortblock is 375? i carry them around all the time wih help from one other person, he is 260 lbs and Im only 130 <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> I know Im not supporting much more than my body weight, that would mean 300. WHy do you ask Tom? (We can pick up a motor and stand on a scalle for you <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

OK,

Here goes-

TOTAL, COMPLETE, FULLY DRESSED, FULLY OILED, crate ls1 from GM is 458#s

This is with manifolds, and a clutch.

Clutch tips the scales @ 49#s , and the cast iron manifolds are 13 each. Subtract this from the motor, and you get 383#s, with oil, intake, coilpacks, Water pump, pan, filter, TB, you name it, Sans manifolds and clutch. Not bad!


So ya, how are the steelers <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />


BTW, a complete head with valves and springs is 24#s. FYI <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Yes I agree, the STEELERS ROCK. The STEELERS vs BROWNS game tomorrow should be very competitive. The "BROWNIES" **sounds like a skid mark on a pair of underware** are a pretty good team.
