Swapping a KA24DE + Trans (5sp) to an LS1 + Trans (6sp) actually saved 100lbs if I remember correctly.

And no, I meant 100lbs/liter - I was poking fun at the fact that Red370 assumes that more cubes = more weight by default, as if motor weight grows in proportion to displacement. I wouldnt be surprised if the VQ37 weighs more than an LS1.

Chevrolet lists the following: LS1: Al. Block 107.1 lb. Al. Head 20.3 lb. Dressed with all accessories 457.6 lb. No, the LS1 does not weigh less than the VQ37.

Most anything, save for the displacement and a few pictures, is theoretical about the Coyote project.
