Good stuff Tim, can you source any of that? I remember trying to find the engine weight for the 2.7L and finding an article saying it was either 5 or 10 lbs lighter than the 3.5L EB. Never found any hard numbers.
Attached is the spec sheet for the 5.0L crate engine. Lots of good specs there, and it shows an engine weight of 431 lbs. Definitely lighter than the EB engines.

Good information. Thank you for posting. I've wondered since i bought my F150 where i can find the Engine weights? Could not find it in the Ford Maintenance manual.

I've seen where the 6.2L V-8 is about 125-140 heavier than the 3.5L EB but I can't prove that right now. If that's the case then the little six's are pretty solid and over built.
Easier to compare the curb weights with each engine.
Good thinking. Pulled the spec sheet for the '13 model year and it's not consistent. Some configurations, like the 157" Max Tow models, only show a 107-lb difference between EB and 6.2L. The 145" WB max tow models show an 87-lb difference. 157" 2WD trucks have a 191-lb difference.
