Cylinder head weight

Post by Stig »

Anyone know how much a cylinder head weighs? I'm selling an old Mini head on Ebay and assumed it wasn't worth the extra cost of postage but someone's asked. I've no way of weighing it so if anyone knows that'll help.

cheers,

Fully assembled head inc steel rocker cover is just over 15kg on the bathroom scales.

Excellent, thanks for that Spag. Nearly £15 to post then, let's see if it's worth that to anyone.

It's only a 10 minute walk to the local post office but I'm not sure about lugging it there on foot!

Cheaper than Post Office for heavier items and they will collect from you.

I posted a bare head a couple of weeks ago (£14) and the guy behind the counter had a bit of a chuckle cause it didn't look very big but was obviously heavier than it looked!
