T56 weights around 185 lbs. (Source, I got sent a T56 when I had originally purchased a TR6060 for my swap and I had to weight it in order to ship it back).

It's not a bad weight penalty, as it's weight literally under the middle of the car which helps lower the COG, but it's definitely not a 20 lbs penalty, more like 100.
It would be under the horizontal (transverse) midline of the car, or mostly around crank height and lower, which is good, but definitely in front of the vertical (frontal/coronal) midline, which would put the car more front biased, even further away from the stock 53/47.



Always good to add this link:
