Was hoping to find the weight of engines etc...
This is the site I used in the past....cannot reach it now.
miniweights co uk

The same guy made the website and that topic

Here's some a few pages in
998 & box dry, inc alt & carb, but no exhaust and no diff 127KG

Short Engine 1275 A+ Including the following parts fitted: Pistons – Con Rods – Crankshaft – Camshaft – Cam Followers – Oil Pump – Oil Pressure Relief Valve Assembly: 53.4 kg

Gearbox (Including all gears & differential): 26 kg approx

If you go to the 'Wayback Machine' website and search for www/miniweights.co.uk you can access various past captures of the website, the most recent being 30th Nov 2023 after which the website seems to have disappeared/closed. From the Wayback capture of the home page (screenshot below) you can click on the various weight pages.
The 'Wayback Machine' can be used to find captures of closed websites but results can vary, sometimes images/photos or other details are lost in the process:-
