Hi, have a simple question.

 

I am building an autotest mini with nova f13 gearbox.

 

I cant decide on either the g13b or c16se. I know the c16se is a brutal weight, even the block on its own. Has anyone ever weighed the two engines?

 

And would the g13b be lighter even with the adaptor plate required? Which I also need if someone can point me in the right direction.

 

Any info appreciated, Thanks

Bit early yet as most of the specialists are still at work, someone from the projests section who has built a Vauxhall engined car may be able to help you out, I used to work in a Vauxhall Dealership but have no idea on the weights.

A quick google search reveals the weight of both engines....

Thanks mate, pity it doesnt mention the c16se weight. The suzuki engine seems to be very light in comparision to others
