FA20 Engine weight?
 

Anyone know the engine/trans weight of a stock FA20?

Take a peek at this

"Weight of 2.0L engine and 5-spd transmission is 493 pounds with a 13 pound dolly;"

So - 480 lbs according to their scale.

so what does the transmission weigh?

Transmission is around 90lbs

so the engine is 390 lbs? / 177kg?

seems a bit heavy to me I'd say the trans is probably a bit heavier than that

most 4 cylinders are in the 140Kg 300lb area

It would make sense that our boxer motors are a tad heavier than inline 4cyl motors considering we have two cylinder heads.

Boxer engines have lower center of gravity, but they are heavier. You need double timing gears on each side etc.

There are iron block inline 4's that share a comparable weight to this engine. It's a heavy b*tch

My sleeved bare block is well over 100LBs I think the label from UPS was 150lb warning crank has to be around 40lbs

seeing how far back the shift lever assembly is extended and how far forward our engine sits in the engine bay makes me mad every damn time. sorry just :mad0260:

*CONFIRMED* Here is the FA20 out of the 2015 BRZ sporting an 10lb aftermarket flywheel and OEM clutch still on the engine.

Weight excludes fluids, AC compressor (+10lb) , injector covers (+5lb) and exhaust manifold (+15lb), OEM flywheel (+10lb)

My FA20 weight: 315 pounds as shown
OEM FA20 weight ~355-360 pounds
