Default FYI: Engine and Tranny weight

Since I have them both out and attached together still I put my engine and tranny on my Long Acre scales to see what they weighed. Engine had no water or oil, but tranny still had fluid in it.

I put 1 scale under the oil pan and the other under the tranny mount (back of tranny)

Total Weight was 400lbs, 273lbs on the front scale and 127lbs on the back one (under tranny mount)

Just FYI.

Ah, thanks for this. I bought a NA Miata with a F20C in it, and always wondered if the motor weighed more or less than a Miata's 1.8L iron block. Looks like its a bit heavier.

Is this with a stock weight clutch/flywheel assembly?
