4g63 weight?

[turbohappy]

How much does a 4g63t longblock weigh? Just the block, without turbos and everything.

 

[sophat34]

are u looking for the weight of just the block, the head and block, or the head block and front cover stuff?

Not on there, but thanks for the reference.

sophat34: I'll take anything for reference on engine weight, what do you have?

 

[sophat34]

block-85-90lbs noting in it at all(guestament from when I picked it up)
crank 35lbs
head with out cams 35lbs
longblock(head rods pistons....)-275-300lbs
those are about as close as I could get. from remembering when I picked mine up to load it in to the truck

When I shipped a short block (block, pistons and rods) it was 150lbs. It barely made the weight limit for UPS.

Thanks all. Any idea for a full AWD drivetrain? Tranny, transfer case, rear end, driveshaft, axles, etc?

I'm looking for this info as well, for the whole engine, w/manifolds, TB, Oil pan, 1G valve cover, manifold w/14b. weight?

Its heavy thats all I have to say. I rebuilt my motor in my bedroom on the second floor in an apartment. I had no other place to do it. Head was installed with arp headbolts and metal hg. timing belt was on and everything. Carried it about 30 feet to my car next to the cherry picker in the dirt where we layed down plywood. I am poor.

My fully built short block (Wiseco pistons, Eagle rods, no BS) weighs 188 lbs. (verified by Oak Harbor Freight)

My head, minus cams, weighs a tad less than 50 lbs. (verified by UPS)

Total with everything should be around 250 (no manifolds, just timing stuff, cams, pulleys, HG)

But methinks Oak Harbor Freight overweighed it to make $$$...188 seems high.

For shipping purposes, anyone have the weight of 420a and 4g63 complete motor weights?

Here is what some guys said about the 4G63 weight when they shipped theirs.

Not sure on the 420a though.

OK I know this is old and all, but I nearly spit my coffee on the screen when I clicked the link.


Yes, I realize it was merged, but still funny to me.

I realise this is old, but I found it with a google search. And ed @ 91TSIChick, either a very good sarcastic a-hole using a fake account, or a really dumb blond.

 

[rlacasse1]

That's pretty funny!!

 

[tstkl]

or maybe the threads were merged? notice how one everythign took place in 2004 until two 2007 posts,....

 

[AnewDSM]

it was merged... the title next to justin0467 is "engine weight" and the original post was "4g63 weight".....

But still i laughed til i almost peed.... for two reasons...
one: i'm dumb because it took me a few times clicking on the link to realize it was routing me back to the same page.... (thought something was wrong with my computer again.)
and.
two: because dangit i'm an idiot....
epic fail.

Rof , funny seeing you here!

 

[AnewDSM]

haha! right...! i was researching the weight... and obviously you were too... did you click on the link?

 

[Ghostcrafter]

Yup ... and it threw me for a bit of a loop. I was hoping it would lead to some real info ... sadly, it didn't.

 

[AnewDSM]

Well.... for anyone else who is looking.... a bare block with nothing else attached or in it is 83lbs...
