Does anyone know approximately how much an 8N engine weighs? I've procrastinated long enough and was waiting for my engine rebuild video to arrive before I try to remove the engine and crank shaft to replace the rear seal and retainer, but am getting impatient. Don't think the weather will cooperate much longer. Need to rig up something to remove the engine and support it, and I want to make sure I'm safe and don't drop anything. I've got the axle, radiator,and oil pan off as well as the oil filter, alternator, coil, water pump, governor, timing gear cover, and manifold. Can anyone offer some tips in how I should go about replacing the seal and retainer? Thanks

Mike,
The engine is about 500#. My wife helped Me get mine apart. I took all but one bolt out, took a floor jack and put it under the oil pan, then took the last bolt out, my Wife pulled the jack while I steadied the engine, then let it down, I then tipped it on the flywheel housing pulled the jack out and blocked it up level. Kinda unorthadox but it worked.
