Engine Weights - Finding out for myself!
OK, I just realized something...
I have a 12A in my basement.
I also have a 0-800lb fish scale.
I'm gonna go downstairs and measure just how much that ol' 12A weighs - first as a bare block, then with rotors and E-shaft in it, and then I'll pile the manifolds, front cover (with dizzy), and water pump housing on it.
Just for scientific curiosity...

peejay a critical question what the hell fish do you catch to require a 800lb fish scale??? They must be monsters in Cleveland.
I have an offical source from 1981 which gave the weight of a 12a egine with ancillaries but no exhaust manifold as 342lbs.
