    how heavy is KV lump?



    how heavy is the KV lump?

    And how hard will it be to transport?

    will it fit in my type 85 CQ? (as in, will it go in boot? or behind front seats maybe?)

    or will it be too difficult to get in out the car?

    gotta think of something soon.

    takes 2 people to lift complete unit eg head, block, pistons, crank.

    One person can lift empty block though.

    Will fit into boot of series 2 as long as you take off the engine mounts.... IIRC

        Yeh 2 people can lift a drained one easily.

        Planning on picking one up soon are we!

        I agree with removing the mounts it will lie flat easily then!

                Got a bit excited when you said you were putting it in the boot, but then realised you meant to transport it! A twin engine'd typ85, what would that sound like!!!
