How much does an LS1 weigh?
Like the title says, how much does one of those suckers weigh with a T-56 bolted up to it? My friend wants to know so any info is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

The complete motor with wiring and accessories weighs about 550. Not sure how much the T56 weighs, but 1RawTA's guess is prolly close.....I know it weighs less than a 700R4

i'd say a 700r4 with converter on it full of fluid is reasonable close weight to a T56 full of fluid with bellhousing on it, not counting the clutch kit or flywheel. The 6 speed is one heavy bastard, it's definitely heavier than just a 700r4 tranny. trust me i know, i've picked both up many times.

I think that is actually the only accessory he's planning on running off of the belt...

[weight nazi ]with an auto trans and all the wiring and accesaries and stuff a full up LS1 is supposed to weigh about 150lbs less than an iron headed gen 1 small block(basically comparied to a complete f-bdoy L98)
another nice thing about the LS1 is that the motor moutn positioning and lack of a dist allow it to sit 3/4 inch lower and 2inches farther back in the car.  [/weight nazi]
later
tim
