Weight of 5.7 liter V8?

Does anyone have the approximate weight of a fully dressed Merc 5.7 liter V8, with the stock cast exhaust manifolds?

I bought a pair and need the weight for the shipping quote...

Thanks

I don't know exactly, but it should be around 750lbs each.

I saw that on the Merc site but...that's with the outdrive, gimbal,...ect. I want the weight of just the engine.

I think Griff is pretty close with the 750 number. The engine will weigh plus or minus that based on many things, like which one it is, if it has fluids in it, etc.
