does anybody know the avg. engine weight of an s4 n/a? i might have to end up shipping an engine and i don't have big scale right off hand so i was just wondering if anybody might have an idea of what the estimated weight might be? atleast this way i could get a estimated quote

thanks,

According to this: http://www.bacomatic.org/%7Edw/txt/engfyi.htm the S5 engine weighs 337lbs w/ oil and water. So figure about that, but it'll depend on what accesories are on it, what manifolds are on it, etc.

 

cool thats a starting point. thanx

btw it'll have no oil, water, power steering pump, ac compressor, and the rest is complety stock alt, smog pump, intakes etc. etc.

but thank you, atleast i have a starting point now

about 265 to 275 pounds.

 

Is there any safe ways to shave weight from the engine block itself from the outside? just a question i thought i'd ask.

 

on my reciept for my shortblock it said 195. shortblock with front cover, oil pump, no flywheel. longblock should be around 350 i believe.
