Does anyone factually know how much that an LT5 fully dressed (from snorkel to tip of cats, with all accessories and preferable flywheel/clutch ) weighs?

Trans with bellhousing/shifter weight?


:confused::confused::confused:

Thanks!

That sounds correct +/- very little - 596 - 605 for engine is debated often and add 60 for I guess a choice of whichever manifolds and cats. The ZF w/shifter 145 says ZF Doc and I would guess that's dry. The clutch housing would be part of the engine weight. The clutch housing is 16 according to Jerry. Jerry also quotes an engine at shipping weight of 600. Is that an approximation? I would have guessed just a bit more for "crate"!

LGAFF sounded firm on 660.
Would be nice to have a breakdown of all the pieces i guess, but a total weight of engine with trans is good also.

Has anyone done a true measurement of the stock weight at each wheel of car (with fluids)?
