Hello,

The complete engine weights approximately 380-390 Lbs. The turbo should add about 25-30 lbs. So somewhere in the 405-425 Lbs. range would be the total weight.

Let me know if yo have any questions.

great, so one ton hoist is enough, even if I use the 1/2 ton hole on it it should also be enough. thanks

Yes, one ton will be more than you will need. I personally find it easier to use the 1/2 ton setup as it gives you more room.
