weight of the 13b...
I have recently been told that an N/A rx-7, bridge ported, is a faster track car than a turbo.... also because its lighter....
that brought me to a question... how much does the 13b weigh? I cant seem to find the weight online... and how much does it weigh including the turbo system? |
25 for the turbo
100 for the block |
100 lbs for the block? no way.... and 25 lbs for a turbo system..... Im not sure if I belive you...... wow.....
|
<250 surely.  A turbo block comes in right under 300.

holy crap thats light.... and a big port probably takes off a good 10 lbs.... phew, another big advantage to the wonderful rotary :)
|
Your best bet might be to call one of the Jspec places, they have to know shipping weight, just subtract for the Turbo, intercooler, and palet.
I always figured around 250 as well. |
It's pretty light... when i did my engine, my dad and I could lift it with our bare hands.... about 200 or so lbs...

A 13B has to weigh more than that. I've read a 12A is over 200 pounds.

I just had a short block shipped to me. The bill said 200lbs. That was with the engine being straped to a wooden pallet. So if I was to guess at the weight I would say 180lbs for a short block.

i recently had a 13b shipped to me,,and its weight was 225lbs
this was a bare block to,,no mainolds no oil pan omp or anything so i believe a fully equipt turbo engine would weigh in the 300 range and a fully equipt N/A would be close to 260 |
