I don't think taking some of the items off the engine are going to make a big difference in the weight or cost. Is the engine being shipped to you from a salvage yard? They usually just send the engine with the parts on that take too long to take off. Time is money for those guys. My engine came with one side exhaust header and i think the power steering pump and thats it. The wiring harness was cut right at the engine as were all water hoses. The weight was a little over 200lbs (from what i remember) and it was shipped by some random trucking company from California to Montana for $175US. Hope this helps and good luck with your swap!
