Yeah, I've always heard its around 125 lbs dry and after manhandling that thing out from under the car in a driveway I definitely believe it. Just imagine how much that thing would weigh with an iron case.

The T56 with the after market gears probably does weigh a few pounds more than a stock one . I have never compared the two on a scale .
Here is a side by side comparison of the size and weight of a T56 vs. T5 .

The weight of a T56 is different between models but the Fcar version is 120-125Lbs. If you package it in a sturdy box you will be close to the Fed Ex limit of 150 lbs ( cheaper rates).
