From what I read on this forum 9-10 years ago, someone said 900 pounds.

Murci is 950 with manual trans (e-gear adds a few more but not much) so 900 for diablo (smaller motor) seems right on.. Prepare for 1,000 and you should be fine

Hey there..having done this I did a lot of research and calcs...and I'm pretty sure it is about 850-900 lbs...
I am always cautious about these things so when buying the engine lift ..I went for a 2000lb or 1 ton lift... When you get that 900lb monster 6 or 7 ft off the floor to clear the rear frame and yer team (don't do it as a 1 man operation TRUST ME! We had 6 ..your milage may vary) is struggling like mad... You do NOT want to be near the weight limit of yer lift. I went for double.. when my $250k car was under it till we rolled it forward I was still having a coronary.

My Diablo thread, fixing and service

I have been reading your posts from start to finish for a while. It's been great & keep up the super work. If I didnt have my health issues, I would be back doing work on my car & other customer cars. Not many here though. Most are just parked up too & no Lambo dealers here.
