there\'s no way the short block is 120kg, i could lift mine and waddle across the garage floor with it between my legs when it was full of coolant and with the flywheel, OMP, water filler neck and water pump all still attached, there\'s no way I could move 120kilo\'s plus all those extra bits, I weigh 10 stone!! :)

I would guess closer to what gary said for the rx8 block, around the 80-90 kilo mark.

Just personal opinion though, I am not a calibrated weighing device! :)
