engine weight

[Chadroper]

how much does a B20A8-2000001 engine weigh and how much does an A20A3 engine weigh.

[shepherd79]

i am not sure about B20a8 but A20A3 weigh around 400lb because if the cast iron block.

[Chadroper]

I dont think its around 400 lbs because I lifted an A20A3 engine, intake manifold, exhaust manifold, block, oil pan, head, valve cover, and mounts and put it in my trunk by myself.

[Chadroper]

Maybe it does weigh around 400 lbs because I can deadlift over 500.

[shepherd79]

i am telling you. it is around 400lb, because B16 is abotu 100Lb lighter and it is around 300lb.

[Justin86]

I would say around 400lbs. I can carry the short block but not with everying on it.

[Chadroper]

I can lift the long block with the manifolds and mounts quite easily. I must remind you people I am quite small only about 160 lbs and 5'6" tall. So therefore it doesn't weigh 400

[Elijah]

I have lifted one aswell. And it did not seem to way 400lbs. Mabey but I'm 200lbs.

[Chadroper]

I would say the entire engine weighs about 185 lbs

[Chadroper]

So which block is more rigid, the B16A3, B20A or the A20A, or the B18A1

[SteveDX89]

So if a B16 weighs 300 lbs., a larger engine with a cast iron block weighs less.

The A20 is most rigid of those listed. Next is the B20A as long as you mean the JDM engine that was stock in the 3g. The other B-series is next. The B16 and B18 are the same as far as rigidity.

[Chadroper]

I always thought the B18A1 and B16 were more rigid.

[Elijah]

Yes the a20 is cast. But you cant forget we have sohc 12 valve

[accordlxi2.0]

damn small engine that pack some power hmm honda knew what he was doing.

[nismoracer99]

what car does the B20 come out of?? is it the RSX?

i think the motor would be around 400lbs.

[deadlight]

The B20A is from JDM Accords and Preludes IIRC, the B20Z is out of the CR-V. I highly doubt it weighs 400 lbs, the A20 doesn't even weigh that much if you ask me, I'm tearing one down in my garage and it sure as hell doesn't feel that heavy to move around.

Same here I got one in my garage. And I say it feels more like 200lbs

[wesku]

122 KG.

[mr eff]

that's 268lbs if you couldn't remember the conversion factor

edit: for the b20a (looks like euro version tho, i dunno i'm still a 3geez newbie)

[AZmike]

Did you mean 268 lb?

2.2 lbm = 1 kg

[AccordEpicenter]

the a20 must weigh at least 300lbs id say 340-360 with both intake/exhaust mani and with tranny itll weigh nearly 500 with an auto

[HondaBoy]

not to be diggin this up, but that ad about the 3gee where it says 122 kilograms or whatever in german, is it me or is it really talking about the torque rating? yeah, it is.

[deadlight]

I doubt it, I'm pretty sure that if you use the metric system, you measure torque as newton meters.
