The weight of an LS engine largely depends on the specific model and its components, such as whether it's aluminum or iron-block. Generally, an LS engine can weigh between 400 to 600 pounds (181 to 272 kg). Aluminum block versions, like the LS1 or LS3, are on the lighter end, approximately 415 pounds (188 kg) when fully dressed with accessories. Iron block variants, such as the LQ4 or LQ9, tend to be heavier, nearing the 600-pound mark (272 kg) fully equipped. These weights include the engine accessories like the alternator, starter, and water pump, which are necessary for the function of the engine. Your specific application and choice between aluminum and iron will greatly affect the engine's weight, hence impacting your decision based on performance needs and vehicle weight distribution.
