Engine Power Density
The post comparing the GM LS6 engine and the current 5.4 three valve Mercedes engine is interesting. Does anyone know the weights of the following engines?

5.4 three valve Mercedes engine

GM LS6 engine (current CTS-V)

GM LS2 engine (current C6 Corvette)

5.4 supercharged Mercedes engine

BMW 4.4 liter engine (current 545i)


Thanks

It would also be interesting to add DC's own 6.1L 425hp hemi and GM's new LS7 to this list.

The LS2 and LS6 weigh about 500 lbs fully dressed (incl. manifolds and clutch). I doubt that the LS7 is much different. I don't know about the other engines.
