« on: December 19, 2016, 08:58:45 am »
Just wondering if anyone knows how much these engines weigh fully dressed? Cant seem to find the weight of them online!

Im planning to swap out an old 5.7 to newer efi motor and trans, hopefully a 6.2 l92/l94/lh9.... but i dont want something too heavy compared to the old block.

L92 is a LS based motor.  It has aluminum heads and is lighter than a SBC.
