Not enough to matter.

In other words for the weight that the B16 is it makes up with the more displacement and horsepower.

Just wanted to get an idea of the difference in numbers for some suspension tuning actually.

Since it is bad to start new threads, I will append this one with some rather useful information -
D15B7 - Quasi Dry Weight, I.E. fluids were drained for removal. Also, without transmission and exhaust manifold. The whole motor weighed in with engine harness at 224lbs.
