2.9 engine weight

[Nez'sRanger]

I am going to pick up a spare motor at the scrap yard. As part of the logistics for storing/shipping it, I need to know what it weighs...
Does anyone know what that may be?

I found this a while back.

Google says 365 pounds...

That's a bit more than I can lift without mechanical leverage.

You aint gonna pick up and load a 2.9 without hydraulic help....

I loaded one all by myself, by hand once.

I loaded it from the floor onto a furniture dolly and moved it around the garage like that for a month before it made it's way into my B2.

Gotta work smarter. Not harder.

Well I was much younger and much dumber in those days.

Yeah, haha! I rented an engine hoist.
Thanks guys!
Now, I got a "fun engine" now time to start saving up for a major rebuild and some serious mods.
I'm hauling it to PA next month, so freedom, here I come!
