Fit vs. Kent weight

[Ralph Z.]

Does anyone know the weight difference between a Honda Fit motor and the Ford Kent motor?

Which one weighs more?

How much more?

[Mike Scanlan]

Ralph, the Honda is about 15-20 lbs lighter than an Alum Hd Kent, but the Honda does have only a slightly higher c of g.

Mike:

Thanks. Yeah, but you can put that 15-20lbs where you want it.

I've not measured either yet, but would like to get an approximation
Anyone care to be more specific?

Center of Gravity Height measured with respect to crankshaft centerline:

Ford with AL Head ~ Weight _________________; ~ COGH _________________

Honda Fit ~ Weight _________________; ~ COGH________________________

Thanks,
