What does the 400 engine weigh without head & block ?
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
My brother is visiting me in the morning to help me lift out the engine - it will be more a case of him lifting with me directing the process.
I am wondering does anyone know the approximate weight of the engine minus the sump, head & block ?
Nurse Julie:
I don't know the precise weight Ted but if it helps, I can just about pick it up on my own but I wouldn't want to carry it too far 😁😁😁😁
robvangulik:
A complete engine weighs just under 60 kilo's
Laverda Dave:
I lifted the Kawasaki Z400 engine out on my own a couple of weeks ago. The head and barrels were removed along with the sump, starter motor and clutch. It was still heavy but manageable on my own just a bit awkward lifting it out. It's a lot easier lifting the engine out of a frame that's going to be repainted, it's something else putting it back into a newly painted frame on your own!

I weighed one without the top end recently to work out the carriage charge Ted. 😉
It was approximately 35kg, noticeably easier to lift than the whole lump.
