I believe it's around 180kgs

No sure exactly, but from first hand experience the other week with 3 of us picking one up.... damn heavy!

Depends on turbo, manifolds, fly wheel/clutch set up, sump dry or wet if you use the belt driven ancillaries brackets water piping?

I'm presuming he meant a stock engine James.

I think when I sent one over to Norway I quoted between 180-200 kgs for a complete engine package.

That would sound about right... best way to estimate I guess would be to add up all the components that are attached to it, some of these are estimates some are from experience:

Block 50kg
Head complete with cams + cover 32kg
crank 22kg
piston + rod x5 5kg
flywheel 14kg
clutch 9kg
sump + bits 5kg
oil pump 1kg
pulley 5kg
water pump, tensioner, cam gear 2kg
EM 8kg
turbo 8kg
IM 5kg
A/C pump + bracket 6kg
PAS pump + bracket 2kg
Alternator + bracket 5kg

Comes to 179kg is my estimate
