Default How much does a Shortblock weigh???

I'm looking to get some shipping quotes and was wanting to know if anyone knows about what a 6L shortblock weighs.

Ive shipped several 6.0l shortblocks and ls1 shortblocks

LS1 shortblock = 178lbs (bare)

6.0L shortblock = 247lbs (barE)

thats what the freight dock weighed them at minus pallet.
