3.2 motor weight

[anmetcalf]

Anyone have an idea what a complete 3.2 weight is?

Also while I am asking what do they redline at?

Thank you

Fully dressed the 3.2 weighs in at about 500 lbs. My autos have all shifted at 7000. My manual seemed to go another 200 rpm's.

yeah 6800-7000 is where mine shift at. 500 pounds that just wow!

500 pounds that just wow!

Yeah, the SHO's have a lot of good ol' cast iron mounts, brackets and braces. One of these days I'll weigh a bare engine and the accessories to help everone out.

I have a bare block sitting right next to me!:sun: it's still heavy about 150 pounds..

yeah I'd be really interested in how much the mounts, accessories, tensioners, and brackets weigh for the SHO engine....

I know that PS/rear mount bracket is a real back breaker lol..

if I had a nice scale I could start weighing a lot of spare engine parts I got here, what do most people use to weigh car parts? just a regular human body weight scale?

I use a shipping balance beam scale; from 0 to 800 lbs in half pound increments.

Another source of weight is the intake, sure its aluminum but it ALOT of aluminum.

about 36 lbs worth IIRC (with TB)

for displacing 183 or 192 cubic inches N/A, the SHO engine takes up a decent amount of height/width/girth and weight to do it. It's not as offensive as the 4.6L or 5.4L though
