Re: To find out how heavy almost any engine is....

that is a pretty nice little site, but its british and they are not known for accuracy in such things, especially American cars. but it is a good site to look at, especially if you go back and look at the main site.
now dont get me wrong i have owned a healey sprite, and a 3000, and i still have a 72 lotus europa i bought in 75. they all had lucas electrical systems.
do you know that the brits call lucas the prince of darkness.
and the brits drink warm beer because lucas makes refigerators.

Haha, at least our "warm beer" breweries are still owned by the British (unlike Anheuser Busch)! Only joking - I prefer Bud anyway.

What's a "brains sa"?
