13b-REW weight

Well, are you talking the entire motor...or just the short block? My short block is sitting on my garage floor, and I have a tough time picking it up by myself. I'd guess around 250 lbs, maybe a little less. The entire assembly and turbos? fucking heavy as hell.

I can pack around a 13B-REW "block" myself, although not exactly easily. The main problem isn't the weight, it's the pointy and sharp parts. :)

I estimate that the "block" is probably in the 200-225 lb. range. With flywheel, all accessories, turbo and exhaust manifolds, lower and upper intake and throttle body, I'd estimate that the 13B-REW weighs in the range 375+ lbs. fairly easily. Let's put it this way. If you and a pal are going to pack one around, you'd better find another pal or an engine hoist or some means to drag it across the floor. They're not that light. :)

By comparison, the shipping weight of my 20B on its pallet, with the turbo and exhaust manifolds, intake, throttle body and full accessories was 561 lbs. I would guess that the pallet weighed 20-25 lbs. tops.

The FD 5 speed transmission weighs about 112 lbs. dry.
