Not sure about the weight, but hopefully around 1300 lbs with the Subaru. But just a guess.

Back on the pipe again BrianN?
Looks totally insane. I'm with the rest of the troops, Get a hold of the person you bought the engine from and let him know all the details that you explained to us. Tell him to man up and help you to assemble it.

Yes, the pipe is a hard habit to break! But I am almost out of "argon"! Instead of messing around and dealing with the person I bought the motor from, I just bought a complete motor/trans (JDM) that is fully assembled. So at least I have all the bolts, brackets, fittings, lines, etc. And even though it isn't perfect, I have everything for "throttle by cable".

I just got done reading through this thread... Brian, I don't think you'll break those rear bearing carriers under "normal" operation. That said, I have personally broken an anvil, so anything is possible, but I think you have some solid looking weldments there.
