Does anyone know the approximate weight of a 5 Star-M5 engine? I have an engine stand and want to make sure it will handle it. Also have to build some splitting stands to do the clutch.

No. But I broke one of those 1,000# Tiwan ratchet hoists lifting a U engine.

If your stand is one of those bell-housing models I would stay away from it. I've only seen one stand that I would put an engine that big on and it had a cradle that supported the engine at both ends.

What I do is remove the pan, blocks, rods, heads, etc. with the engine still in the tractor. Then I pull just the crankcase, crank, cam, flywheel & clutch when I split the tractor. And I reassemble the same way.
