Found this. It may be old hat to some, but the weight part I hadn't seen before:

Re: Engine weights
I'm with Graham on this one. I've seen a few all aluminum LS engines weighed and I can't see how an engine with virtually the same block/internals + iron heads could weigh 100lbs less. Must have left off some parts when it was on the scale :)
