Engine, prop attachment bolts, standoffs, stock muffler with attachment bolts, ignition, plug, is 60.3 oz (3.77 lb = 3# 13oz). If you use the Slimline Pitts muffler the weight increases to 65.9 oz ( 4.12 lb = 4# 2oz). Add to this a battery and switch (3.2 oz) and prop (4 - 7 oz) to complete the weight.
Bob P put together a great spreadsheet listing the accurate, RTF weights of many engines. [link=http://www.rcaerobats.net/GAS_ENGINE_INFO/GAS_ENGINE_WTS.htm]CLICK HERE[/link]

Bob P's weight table is very interesting, but a little unfair to the MVVS 45 where he uses a cannister and maniflold for the overal weight and a pitts style on everone else's motors, it would be farer if he used the Evolution side mounted muffler on this engine.
