well 80kg is a lot easier when you pick it up in quarters ;)

the engine is compact and doesnt have very good pick up points,

right side engine mount on 1 side

thermostat house on the other... not much choice

I am not sure how accurate this is but I read somewhere the H22+drivetrain, intake, alternator, upper half of the exhaust manifold, half shaft etc weighed 475lb's, thats approximatly 215kg. This was found scouring the net one evening so I cannot guarentee how accurate the figure is.

Does anybody know what the ATTS module weighs? Its fairly chunky so I presume we must be looking at around 20kg for that alone?

I have split and shipped an H22a7 recently. The PDE intake manifold is 8KG, the head is approx 30kg, and the short block is around 80-100 at a guess. An H22 gear box doesnt weigh too much, I can lift it.
