Default 928 16-Valve Engine Weight?

Does anyone have a Idea of what a 16-Valve 928 Engine weights?
Im interested in the longblock weight but anything will work.
Would it be around 400 lbs? with the belt drivin accesories.

That is a complete engine...I believe the later 32-valve was 264 Kg...slightly heavier. Check out Rob's engine weight breakdown for a 32-valve GTS engine...I think he came up with 530-ish lbs.

Cheers!
