Ken elle Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 K series engine ? Duratec Zetec X/flow etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AMMO Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Ken Not 100% sure, also depends what bits you have attached at the time, but I think: K Series 92 kilos? Duratec is about the same as a K series around 92 kilos with no induction system and ultralight weight flywheel. I've sort of worked this out by weighing bits independantly. I'll know for sure when I finish building the engine. My Zetec with coil pack, inlet manifold and lightweight steel flywheel: 115 kilos The Crossflow that came out of my car was 100 kilos. I've been told that the VX is around 130 kilos but Idon't know if this is true. AMMO Edited by - ammo on 24 May 2003 08:42:36 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelspeed Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Some info on www.fluke-motorsport.co.uk Follow the links to a page with weights of various Se7en's related things. Weights of engines are notoriously difficult to compare 'cos one person weighs a standard engine with oil in and alternator, starter, carbs etc fitted then the next person weighs theirs with no ancillaries, no sump pan, ultra-lightweight flywheel, 5 inch clutch, steel crank. This can make a huge difference so be very careful when comparing 2 quoted weights that they are like for like. If you go K, zetec, crossflow, Vauxhall, Pinto then that's probably as near as you're going to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMMO Posted May 24, 2003 Share Posted May 24, 2003 Steve My Crossflow was without carbs, starter motor or oil. With steel wet sump. Zetec was with a cut and shut stock ali sump. Again no carbs or oil. Looks about right. AMMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
