Hi Gary, In the latest supplement to the T-Bird restoration manual, there are photos of a mostly complete engine less exhaust manifolds and carburetor. The engine (292 or 312) includes the intake manifold, front cover,water pump, and damper pulley. It tipped the scales at 495 pounds. The same engine with automatic transmission and torque converter weighed 715 pounds. This supplement is called Addendum I (2011) and is available from CTCI in California. These engines are lighter than I thought. Nick Brann, K.C., MO
