Rex Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 Does anyone know the approximate weights of the commonly used seven engines? e.g. Sigma, Rover, Zetec, crossflow, Duratec and Vauxhall 16v Just curious is all. I know the sump and bellhousing have to be factored in as well. Thanks to anyone who can help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SM25T Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 They seem very heavy .... does that include the bellhousing and maybe gearbox ? I thought the K was only around 80kg ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Jonathan Kay Posted July 3, 2017 Member Share Posted July 3, 2017 Excellent, thanks. (I couldn't find those when I was trying to calculate the gains from electric drive.)Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
