What's a dry longblock weigh?
#2
Depends. I can pick up most Briggs & Stratton longblocks by myself. But A GM 471 longblock, nope.
I will assume you are asking about a 1.8L miata longblock? They aren't light. A friend and I picked one up and put it on an engine stand. Wasn't easy, but it's doable if you aren't a scronny weak bitch.

I figure the block weighs a little less than the B2200 motor, crank's probably about the same. I had almost no problem picking up the bare block by myself so I'll be cool with a helper. It's not so much that it's heavy, just awkward as hell.
