It'll be shipped truck freight and so will be wrapped and strapped to a small pallet. I'll estimate it at 200 total then, should be about right, thanks.
cant be that bad, and and a buddy fo mine picked up a shortblock and sat it in his car.....
Check the link I posted earlier, they have the aluminum block listed at around a 140 pounds.
200 pounds is girly weight any man should be able to throw 200 pounds into the back of a car after carrying it a couple thousand meters.
I know I can! Shoot back in high school my brother and I quit using the chainfall to install engines because it was quicker to use a piece of pipe and a small length of chain and just place the 454 in the car.
IMO, if you can't carry a bare block you might need to add this to your garage.
MIke thank god for good genes!
