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.

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.
