I did a search and all i found was weight debates for b and h series. Does anyone know how much a k20 weighs compared to a B series? thanks

 

Roughly the same a B16

 

i head k20 was a little lighter than most b series
EDIT- also the block is closer to the passanger side so it distributes wieght in the front- better for hanfling

 

k20 is about 30-40lbs lighter than a b-series

i never knew that. something learned today.

 

I believe the tranny is smaller too, from what I've read.

 

tranny is smaller and lighter

 

K20a swap is supposed to be about 20lbs. lighter than a B18C5 swap.

Also something interesting:

The TS-X has a magnesium tranny case which is light as hell!

If the issue is H22A weight vs. K20A weight - it's not contest.

 

Approximately the same as a B16A, engine trans and axles.

EDIT: Sorry for bringing this post back from the dead!!!! i was searching around. whoops!!

 

Yeap...if you read thru honda tunning it says k is lighter than b

 

My buddy just put a K20 in his 95 GSR he bought the car as a theft recovery, when installed, it sitts soooo much higher in the front. it looks like a fkn monster truck. i know that the tranny has to be heavier than a b series, simply b/c of the 6th gear. but everything else on the motor is alluminum(brackets and such) but overall the k is alot lighter than the b

 

the k20a 6 speed tranny is smaller and lighter(semi dry sump) than b18c type R tranny
