"I'll throw out some ideas." means, some things to think about b4 doing the swap.
I wasn't saying the engine alone weighs 1000lbs, i wasn't saying it does not physically fit, I wasn't saying that it wouldn't work in any area I mentioned...just things to take into consideration.
I'm sorry you felt my post was "weak" ca18guy, but I don't like the feel of a v8 domestic and I would never turn my 240 into one. I was not comparing this swap to a RB, I don't see that it even came up anywhere in the topic...but it's not like those are easy to drop in either. I said it required custom fabrication...you "corrected me" saying it required no more than the RB, ok...well the RB requires custom fab work too...I don't get what your trying to say here. However I was wrong on the wiring, I don't really know anything about carbs.
How much weight will this add? Enough to negate the power gains? no. Enough to make it feel like a different car? I'd tend to think so.
I'm a weight freak as most of you know...so swapping a 4cyl for a 8 cyl would be a big deal for me, I guess it's not so important to most people...
The KA (according to don nimi) weighs ~300lbs w/out any accessories, btw.
