But seriously though........
I thnik it's around 220kg ish (185 for the engine + 35 for the type 9).
But I'm sure someone will be along with more accurate figures.

I believe it is easier to cut the slam panel and lift the car off the engine.

I thought they were about 160k but that's completely unsubstantiated...

well according to taht site, the Pinto is around 418lbs(approx 190kg) and the gearbox is 33kg.
So if that's right then I'm not too far off alex  .

I don't think you can weld up a hernia, even for insurance purposes.

Well if the second link is correct then I am wrong. According to the engine & tranny info under technical it says the Pinto is 418lbs?? Yet under
the other link in spiderman's post it says 135kg (approx 300lbs!) Confused or what?
If anyone has actually weighed one pleeeease let me know
Whichever, the 250kg crane will lift it no problem
