Not too sure if this is the right forum to be asking but what the hey.
Anyone know the approximate weight for a fully built F7P (including manifolds, tb, belts, alternator etc)
No need for it to be exact, its just for my own interest.

Re: F7P engine weight
Its probably just the shape of teh manifolds that make it easy to lift. The 1.7 is tricky to caryy on your own as where the 16v is easy to grip both sides with manifolds on.
