do you guys think that i would be able to put my b16 full swap in the back of a pick up and lift it out into something else (not sure what buyers drivin). I'm not that big of a guy ( six one but only 160lb ) and i'm not sure how many people it would take to lift this thing!

I think the transmissions weigh about 130 and the long block is only about 100ish. I THINK. So probably yes if you have a few guys.

My brother an I lifted a full ls swap into and out of my dodge mega cab truck. It wasn't that bad. We are both 6' 165lbs, so yes it can be done, but would be a lot easier with a couple more guys.

I don't think those weights are correct in relationship to one another because I can lift a tranny with one hand but there's no way in hell that I could lift a long block with one hand (I'm 6'2" @235lbs). Anyways, if you got two reasonably fit guys you'll be fine. A third would definitely help and would be absolutely necessary if no one is really "big" in the group.

u shouldnt have a problem. just ask a couple friends to help u. then when you get there to drop it off, TELL HIM TO TAKE IT OUT CUZ HE'S BUYING IT! LOL.

but really you guys can lift it.

Yeah, sorry for bad info, the long block was a total guess.

3 typical adult men should easily be able to handle this. 2 can, but it then becomes more sensitive to their strength level - 3 will handle it unless one or more of them are disabled in some way.

a total guess for a complete b-series longblock and trans would be 350lbs
