Default LS1/6 Engine+Transmission Weight?
I can not seem to find a complete engine transmission weight of this combo. I know the T56 weights in at about 125 lbs from some of my research, but that might not include the bellhousing. Looking for a “as pulled from car weight” for a LS1+T56 transmission combo. If you have sources that you can link me to that would be great. Even if you know just the complete LS1/6 engine weight that would be great as well.

What're you swapping it into, probably easier to find the weight difference postswap

My research is saying 460 for the complete engine and flywheel and then 125 for the transmission.

my aluminum longblock block weighed 436 pounds complete

i would say 700 for engine, clutch and trans is very close

if it has acessories on it water pump/alternator/power steering/a/c then throw another 60 on there.

Just look what MIGHTYMOUSE put. His car runs 9's. I'm sure he's had the motor and transmission out of it quite a few times.
