How much does the stock engine weigh (without the bling ;) )

And what's the best engine stand for the job ?.

How much and where from ?.

Thanks in advance.

Machine mart is prolly your best bet. Either of their stands will do the job but maybe go for the more expensive one with the tray ;)

second that they do a 250k which is fine although I went for a 350k just to be on the safe side prices are very good from there too

I think the engine weighs about 150kg, off the top of my head, or 330lbs.

Jeez you must have a strong head :eek:

I got a 2 tonne engine crane with a free engine stand from Exchange & Mart for £200 I think.

Very good quality too.

 

It's standing on my drive doing nothing right now ;)

Been trying to decide if I should sell it but I know what will happen if I do!

You can hire it for a very small charge LOL

Sits on 4 wheels as well, the 3 wheel ones always look unsteady.

 

They are only in Rayleigh too, plus you can collect, then there is no carriage charge. I paid £52 inc. delivery.

I got the expensive one. :dance:

 

if you are going for a crane, get the long reach, well worth the money.

 

As for weight, fooking heavy as I picked up one last night, quite literally :)
