Any ideas for a 4 cylinder n/a lump? Including ancillaries ideally.

I reckon around 200kg, but would like a more accurate number if anyone knows?

Cheers

Not sure carl, all i know is that it took everything I had to lift minr for thr floor onto a bench, I only ever did it once and wouldn't recomend it!!

125kg , or a little more than a pinto

Three of us could barely lift a turbo long-block out of the boot of my 360, although that's nasty job anyway! A shortblock is supposed to be a reasonable lift for one stout person...so I'd guess 60-75kg for that.

What I can tell you is that an I6 is bloody ridiculously heavy for an ally block engine. I'm not too small, and me and a mate could lift it about an inch off the deck before we had to put it down.

That little? I must be weaker than I thought then

Off to buy an engine stand now then, and dont have to fork out for the heavy duty one

i dont have the heavy duty one

considering a vw golf engine/transaxle is around 150kg , id say there quite heavy engines !!!

I wouldn't be depressed Carl. I'd call a longblock without manifolds a fair lift for two people. Chesh used to lift a shortblock instead of going to the gym, but it was a serious weight to lift

I shifted the B230 (complete with everything) with a mate and it was bloody hard work just to lift it a few feet across the garage!! An engine standard is only £30 so I figure it'll be far easier to use that than struggle stripping and reaplcing parts whilst on the ground!
