Block weight?

[ilpourboy]

I knew I should have pulled the whole s**t in the first place. I've got everything off the top of the engine down to the block. The only things still attached are the front cover, water pump, and timing gear cover. Can anyone tell me how much the engine weighs now, without all the other stuff attached to it? I need to figure out what equipment I will need to pull it.

Thanks.
Rob

Figure a 6.9 wieghs in around 900+ lbs. - 90 lbs each head. Your right around 720+ lbs.

Just as a frame of reference, this is my engine coming out fully dressed with a 2 ton picker.

I had to go after it sideways, cuz I didn’t have enough clearance overhead with the garage door open, and I couldn’t get the hoist in front with the garage door closed...
