Weight of L98 engine

Does anyone know the weight of an 1987 L98 TPI engine with iron heads (without accesories)? Just need an estimate not exact.

Thanks, just wanted to make sure that a 750lbs engine stand could handle this stuff.

Make sure its a good one. My $35 one from Advanced Auto sags a bit.

I guess you do get what you pay for!

Thanks for the heads up! $35 bucks? Not bad. That's actually a great deal if you're working on a lighter engine like a V6.
