Measured just like this.



No coolant/oil in block, no spark plugs, no intake manifold, no oil filter.

* Exhaust manifolds were installed.

*Rope holding engine is 5 lbs.

* Scale was zeroed out TWO times for accuracy and weight varied 298lbs-301

*Flex plate was on engine.

*No transmission

Weighs as much as my paintball buddy. lol

 

Should be a stuck thread for tech for this engine.

 

J32 in a civic. Pretty sweet.

Has this been done before?

 

if he does it right, that civic will be a BEAST

 

haha it most certainly will, especially if the interior is stripped down.

 

let's see how it works out, i wish him the best with this project

 

Now weigh the auto tranny and see how much that weighs

 

do we have to go thru that again

 

Yep!

 

We really do actually... 6spd=3446lbs vs auto=3510lbs

 

Thanks guys, this is all great motivation for me.

Not gonna be seeing an auto transmission unless someone gives one to me for the hell of it, for me to weigh. I have no plans at all to use one.

 

my 5AT weighed 166 lbs including torque converter.

 

Finally get yours in from DR?
