How precise are you needing?

A Vespa motor is 88 lbs with a cast iron cylinder, IIRC.

If you really need an exact number, I'll take a scale out to the workshop and step on it with my GL's original motor.

When my engine was sent to me in 2012 , 75 lbs at 30x20x17 in a tote. This is of course a vbb engine with cast iron cylinder.
