I read somewhere on the DIY's it was 86 pounds. It felt like so. Yes, car should be jacked up stands ~ 18 inches though to slide the tranny out. So > 18" jack for tranny and = or > to support the engine via oil pan with padding.

I used a piece of wood on the tranny jack to give it a flat surface to balance on.
