Engine Weight V8 & 20vT

Isimmo · 25-04-09, 01:09 PM

Does anyone know the approx weight of an S6 4.2V8 (circa 2000 year) and a 5 cylinder 20v Turbo engine with Turbo, intercooler etc.

Basically... Is there a lot of difference?

drop an RS4 B5 engine in instead... bi turbo and 380 bhp.... shouldbe quiet lively in a CQ

its more compact than a V8

I'm not sure of exact weights but the V8 will be lighter. There's another V8 conversion going on at the moment which is proving to be quite a squeeze. May be worth you looking at it!

my scales go up to 200kg ian but not got a crane to hand this week so cant get an exact figure on the 20vT front....

Weight of the 4.2 S4 lump is prob only something Audi will have themselves.
