i thought it was more like 170kg? 118kg seems pretty light for such a big lump.

Jhonno is right.
Even an M30 weighs only 143kg.....

wow thats so much lighter than i thought
. i guess i was thrown because on bmwworld, a m20 from bmw 3.0si is listed at 199kg and an m52 is listed at 170kg. so i figured the 2.5m20 would be up in that region..
i am actually pretty darn shocked how light it is...i assumed it was a total piece of pigiron. so how much do the 4cyl engines in the e30's weigh?
just because a 4cyl dohc zetetc engine weighs about a 115kg..
once again
