Weight of manual transmission?

Anyone have an idea how much a manual transmission on a 2006 325i weighs? Saw an e90 video of it being lifted out by two guys and it didn't look that heavy and those guys weren't really that big. And I think that was a 335i, so probably a heavier transmission.

Going to be changing out my flywheel/clutch and wondering if maybe I can just gorilla the transmission out. Have access to a lift and can get the car high enough to make me lifting the transmission easier. If it weighs 150lbs, should be no problem. If it weighs 200lbs, maybe a problem. If it weighs more than 200lbs, I won't consider trying.
