Sorry no one knowledgeable has replied to your question. I don't know the exact weight, but approximately 150 lbs. for the engine and 75 lbs. for then tranny.

in 69 it was a 1438 ? i once shipped a 1608 weight was about 120 lbs cost be a little over $80.00 UPS
in a double card board box that i lined with thin board this was the short block not sure long block weight
it shipped from Los Angeles to NY Area .

The Tranny is lighter then 75 Lbs not sure weight wise maybe 40lbs or so .

I shipped a complete 1438 from Los angeles to Texas. Set it on a pallett and dropped iot off at a trucking site. But I cant remember cost or weight. That is the cheapest way to go. i used AB trucking.

I agree that the trans is between 40-45 pounds. I had to carry one across a wrecking yard a few weeks back. I walked it about a half mile with two breaks...

I just shipped an entire Fiat 850 bottom end USPS from Oregon to SoCal, and it cost $52.00.

Actual weight, measured today:
engine, including flywheel and clutch - 300 lbs.
transmission, including bellhousing: 70 lbs.

Sorry I was way off on my engine estimate. It does feel quite light on the cherry picker
