W55 and W58 will both weigh about 35kg, each.
Not 100% sure on those engines, will wait for a guru to chime in rather than guess and then get shot down in flames.
Have you searched this forum for these answers ????
Tell me you have, right ???

140kg for 18rc (with aircon)
175kg for 1ggze (so less obviously for NA versoin)

I heard my 18-RG was around 175KG... Would that be wrong then? It was damn heavy to lift though... Any ideas between that and an 18R?

Man, there's only one way your 18RG could have weighed 175kg, and that's with 40kilos of kid sitting on it
We weighed my brothers 18RGU just before we put it in the car (inc. carbies and exhaust manifold and oil) and it weighed around 135kg (no aircon)
the 18RC wieghed about 140 when we took it out, may have had aircon, maybe not, not sure when we took that off.
The 18RGs are liftable in this state by two guys (albeit uncomfortly) so it can't have been 175, with my injury record, I'd have broken for sure

Mean, it's not a tank! Yea, 2 of us could lift it reasonably easily, took 3 to get it out of the boot of a lantra tho! Hopefully it's about the same or a bit lighter than my 18R. Cheers
