Couldn't find what I was looking for in a search.

Are there any simple/inexpensive methods for weighing an engine.

I'm anticipating 425 - 450 LBS. My first thought was to buy a spring scale and weigh while the engine is hanging from the hoist. But I hate to spend $250 - $500 for a scale capable of handling that weight that I'll likely only use once.
