Does anyone know how much a 450 plain diesel engine weighs?

Can't say with 100% certainty but based on my past and working on engines I would guess 600 pounds+/- with head and manifolds etc still attached.
I've man-handled bare blocks in the past and they aren't terribly heavy when stripped but assembled engines do have some poundage to them.
Pushin hard or diggin deep life is good.
What's ahead is what matters. What's behind is already done.

Thanks, that was my guess. Just wanted a second opinion.
