Default Engine wieght??

I am not sure if this is in the right spot or not, so mods feel free to move if needed.

I am trying to find out the wieght difference of a iron block/aluminum head 5.3L and a LS1. Does anyone know where I can find this info?

Internal Section.

But, it is about 80 pounds roughly.

Thanks. I knew there wasnt much of a diff. but since I am designing a chassis and trying to pick components for suspension, I figured I might as well be as correct as I can on wieghts.
