Weight

Post by ravenshurst »

Hi all.....it’s been many many years, but I have survived all life has thrown at me (so far, lol) and I am back with more annoying questions. I have managed to hang on to a 2L buss engine and a freeway flyer through the years, and now I’m thinking about a 356 speedster replica/kit. This question is about the TIV cooling systems.....
Does anyone know the weight of a T4 engine with an upright shroud? Same question with more or less stock bus cooling?
Or maybe a really crazy set up like the Reichert?
I am wondering how the added weight of a T4 will affect the handling of a light car like a speedster. I REALLY don’t want to add weight to the front. Thanks for any and all input

Never mind....I think I have found enough info scattered about the net to make some fairly accurate guesses....
