The green book lists 341 pounds for a B18, with electrical equipment and carburettor. No text to indicate whether that figure includes the flywheel and clutch - but photos of the complete engine in the same book show the bellhousing installed, so I've always assumed the flywheel and clutch are part of the advertised weight. The M40 is just about 50 pounds with shifter; add coolant and the radiator, you're looking at around 425 pounds for the lot. And don't forget the gas tank, fuel, and associated plumbing.
