    Re: how much does the a20 weigh?

    well ok then. i believe im taking it out tomorrow. a friend from maryland is coming to live with me for a while next month and this dude is straight crazy. he can make just about anything. so hes gonna make me some mounts. and ill have all of my wiring junk around next month aswell.

    Do you think i can make the p/s work with the b series or should i just get rid of it?

    btw im thinking of going B20/vtec insted of ls/vtec. if i go b20 it will be a high comp build. if i got ls it will be turbo.

    Even with both manifolds, the transmission, and just about anything else that you could leave attached to the engine, you'd still be well below 1000 lb.

    agree
    I yanked both out at the same time and it was not heavy at all, I can move it around on the floor easy. B20 seemed a bit lighter but more mass.
    edit= lighter than a harley

    Power steering, you should be able to keep as long as your original HP line fitting & line reaches the pump ok.
