The low end on that thing is freaking awesome though.

The LS9 and LSA are close to 100 lbs heavier than the LS3, I don't think it would be too different for their gen V equivalents. As for weight location, I was thinking more in terms of the supercharger & intercooler brick that have to sit on top of the engine.
