Engine Weights

Hey Gang,

I figured a thread of its own would be easier to navigate.

List is in no particular order: Includes spark plugs, prop bolts and washers.
No mufflers, standoffs or ignitions

Click here For the TWINS

Click here For the SINGLES

Email me highwayhan @ Hotmail.com or PM,
If you have any that can be added to the list.

Thanks

Re: Engine Weights

Hey Hanes!

I'd like to propose that we set the weight standard similar to what you did for the twins... Motor with propbolts, exhaust flange bolts, stand-offs (if required) and ignition.

We have weights for DA60, 3W55xiCS, DLE55, Mintor60 V2, and BME58. Send me your email and we'll get you an excel file to get this started!!!

Cheers

Trev

Re: Engine Weights

How about exclude the ignition.
Make it a separate item like the muffler.
Some companies ignitions are very different than others

Motor ( with prop bolts and washers, muffler bolts, sparkplug, standoffs ) =
Ignition =
Muffler =

that is a good idea ,guys may swap out ignitions .and mufflers.I would say ditch the stand offs also so you have a true weight of the motor and required parts . I never use the supplied standoffs.

Or are you just interested in the larger Gas engines?
