The aluminum 5.3 is 15+ lbs more than an aluminum gen 3 block?

Glad to see the LSX was only 24.5 heavier but capable of far more than the 6.0 iron block.

I think it’s only 15 lbs more than an LQ block. New superseded LSX block could weigh even more, the one pictured is an older one, 2015 date code.
