1977 Johnson 140 HP motor weight?

[RonnieD]

Can anyone please tell me where I can find the accurate weight of this old motor? I have found answers ranging from 301 lbs to 365lbs, but would like to get a little more accurate in order to find a modern motor that does not exceed the weight of this one...THANKS.

Yup right around 310......... too much to balance on your toes. Most of the older V-4's are the same weight
