Hello
Not looking for an actual weight lol but how many people would it take to lift 1?
Only asking as I've found the gearbox I'm after but includes engine, manifolds, drive shafts, starter motor, ecu etc.
For a bargain price of £100 just down the road from me!
But I've got to go and dismantle it all and drive it back.
Once I've took gearbox etc off the engine could 2 people lift it into the back of a 206?

I'd say it's somewhere between an assload and a metric s**t-tonne

I reckon even if 2 people could lift it or however you get it into the back of the 206, it would probably break the rear suspension.
Just found this on google...
EW10J4 (1997cc 16v alloy block aka "206 GTi") - 137kg

I'm in need of as much tips and advice as I can get.
I'm removing the engine Saturday.
Never done this before I'll be learning whilst doing it.

137kg doesn't sound to bad. Less than 2 adults...
