Thats right How heavy is a standard 1600cc engine, I was thinking about 100kg, but two men can easily lift one, which makes me think that it would be lighter than that.
So How Heavy?

Everything that I have read about engine weights says that a Type 1 VW engine weighs 85 kilograms and a Type 3 or 4 weighs 100 kilograms.

I moved a 1200 engine complete from QLD to ACT last year, it tipped the scales at 92kg. Look for the smaller transport companies, I got this one moved for around $110.

Try asking people on here.
We got a body kit from Newcastle to Adelaide & it didn't cost a cent.
Depending on how urgent it is, you have a lot of shows coming up over the next few months, & a lot of people travelling interstate to get to them.

1600 basic motor is 78kg (no oil) - so add tinware, intake, gen, etc.. on top of that if applicable.
