I want to rebuild the origonal engine on me IIa. I want to buy an engine stand but need to know the wieght of the engine. When I move the lump last with 4 mates, we nearly got extra testicles. Does any one know the wieght of these 4 cylinder Petrol engines? I was surprised how heavy these realatively small engines are.

250-300kg would be my guess.

Let's put itthis way as ong as you dontbuy the cheapest stand out there then you will be fine
Most stands will hold half a ton (500kg)
That's 1 hell of a lump
