How much does the FB rotary and 5 speec weigh?

I am curious how much the engine and tranmission weigh? Seperate or together (with clutch assembly) I just want the weights (can't find them anywhere).

Thanks,
Bart

I weighed my 12a at 160 lbs. Heres what i had and didnt have:

No front cover-about 5 lbs
No intake or exhaust manifold - i dont count these because different applications use different manifolds
No flywheel (But the automatic counterweight was on there. It's about 6 lbs, and MY flywheel is about 17 lbs)
No clutch about 6 lbs

My estimate is that the FB tranny weighs about 65-75 lbs.

Hope that helps

My 13B engine (with flywheel but without transmission) weighed 175 lbs. minus accessories, manifolds, etc.
