Hi guys, been looking around the net for a few hours trying to find the answer to this. Stumbled upon your forum and realised I had already signed up in the past. Does anyone know the weight of the 6G72 mivec that came in I believe the 3rd generation magnas/diamantes?

I'm having a look - for science!

Found this LINKY LINKY (http://www.mitsubishi-motors.com/corporate/about_us/technology/review/e/pdf/2007/19e_13.pdf)

Weight is 180kg

180kg sounds too little for a cast iron block V6.
I assume that weight is just a long block, no ancillaries?

Yeah, that info is in the link, engine only, not including mounts.

Thanks guys thats very helpful. Does anyone know the weight if a complete engine minus transmission?

Not sure.... But if you read the owners manual you can determine the weight difference in manual, 4spd auto and 5spd auto.

If I had to guess I'd say that a 5spd auto would be 80kg? Guessing here.

Thanks for that man, I meant weight of the engine not the tranny lol

Yeah..... I realised that AFTER I posted that. Brain fade.

I think that weight (180kg) was tranny free, and sounds about right.

This whole engine weight thing interests me to so I'm going to keep digging.
