An a-series engine is about 140 kg.
A b16 Honda engine is about 190kg.
An r1 engine and gearbox is 80kg (I’m not joking)
A 2l Vauxhall engine is 160kg.

You have to take into consideration of gear ratios also.

the r1 is the best suited obviosly other then the a-series.

but even then the 1st gear is still very short
