Weight of 172 engine

[D1CKY]

I am currently breaking my 172.

Does anyone know how much the engine weighs ?
I would weigh it myself, but have no way of doing so without a load cell or large scales.

I need to know this for possible shipping purposes.

Cheers

Really? Seems a bit much to me. No evidence otherwise mind you just seems high.

Lol at 60kg. The block and crank will be about that. It's iron.

All alloy engines are around 80-90kg.

Considering I've lifted one about with another person I didn't think it was as heavy as that, apologies my internal scales weren't up to your standards.

 

[Djw John]

Aye either Dave is hench as f**k or I am. Still the scales don't lie!

I've lifted them in/out of the back of a Range Rover with a helper, but they are pretty heavy. I wouldn' have said 100kg heavy though!!!

Two men should easily be able to lift 16.7709 stone tbh.
