Your Grenadier will be much heavier

An aluminum block NA GM LS/LT is probably the same weight as the turbocharged B58.

Note that I’m not advocating for a change here. Just been on my end of a few LS swaps. They’re pretty light. We swapped a LS3 into a 996 and it was lighter than the flat 6 that came out by several pounds. Made MUCH more power as well.
