How much does it weigh?

Does anyone know how much a LS1, 4.8/5.3/6.0 weighs? Just the longblock (block, rotating assembly, and heads)
Anyone number from one of those engines will work and I can figure it out from there.
Couldn't find the info anywhere.

Looks like the 5.7 LS1 longblock weighs about 390 lbs.

My bare block weighed 88 lbs. If that helps.

Somewhat, now I would have to find weight on the rotating assembly and heads.

Just trying to get some shipping rates and I don't have a scale that will weigh that much.

stock motor is ~390, which can be found in jrp's SuperFAQ.

i would think that is the shortblock.
