As for weight IIRC the LS2 is about 190kg and the S6 is about 180kg, perhaps+/- 5% for both figures so there's very little in it. It's the AJP8 which is the light one at 121kg. No wonder ceejay likes the weight advantage for racing!

The only problem with this is that both the AJP V8 Cerbs that I have converted so far have come in at 25kg more than with the AJP.
This would make the LS come in at around the 145kg mark which is substantially lighter than the SP6...
