Engine weight

[Clarky]

Anyone know the weight of an FD engine, i need to buy the right engine stand.

I have been told buddy, that the total engine weight is 278 lbs or 126 kg
and total installed engine weight (firewall forward) is, 325 lbs or 148 kg
  cheers, Andy

I dont think you\'ll find an engine stand that WONT hold the rotary, its so light!
I was going to get a small one from screwfix but managed to get a 750lb clarke jobbie from ebay for silly money which was nice!

Depending on when you are planning on using it I could probably lend it out...
I\'ll be using it as of this weekend for a little while (as short as possible hopefully!)

Thanks for the offer dandan, but i have now got one off ebay too, did you have to make up a plate to hold the engine.
