What is the size of the dial indicator?

0-1" dial indicator with 0.001" resolution AGD Group 2 2.25" Diameter face, 0.375" shank, #4-48 tip thread Lug back mounting screws: #2-56 thread

What is the weight on the magnet?

I assume you mean what kind of holding force does the magnet provide in lbs.. I dunno? The supplied magnet has more holding force than the stress limit of the arm provided. Less than a 1/4 lbs of force could bottom out a dial indicator facing vertical. When you flip the switch to lower it you can't physically lift the magnet unless you really tried quite hard. Such force would not be applied in any circumstances while using a precision measuring tool. I use this solely to set a 12 foot bed jointer. The machine has no height indicators built in. I leave it magnetized to the machine. And read negative. Has never moved during operation of the machine in the year year and a half it's been on it. However This is an economy grade tool meant for everyday machine shop work of lab measurements. The arm adjuster is the weak link.... As it is with all kits under $100. I felt I got good value for my purchase price. If you are using this for rough abusive work you may not get the life expectancy you expect. This product is designed for finding TDC, setting blade and bit Heights and turning coplanarities in close surfaces as most dial indicators are made for. If you plan on putting 4 ft extention arms and taking measurements across long expanses... This is not for you. units like that range in the 500 dollar and up range. I you where asking about the actual weight of the magnet itself (as in if it was removed) I can tell you the entire assembly is roughly 1 pound. Magnet might be 4 or 5 ounces.

Can this be used to check end play on aircooled vw engine

It can be used to check the end play on virtually ANYTHING made of metal...
