Not 100% sure really... I would guess between 40-60 lbs dry. If you're really interested, I'll try to drop it tonight.

$200 and the owner claimed approx. 100k miles, my inspection didn't give rise to anything different. I picked it up in my DD '85 CRX Si, which just received a nice hit to the rear by a new Camry only a couple hours before. I already had the HF tranny from my ongoing project HF, so now I just need the bits and pieces. My advice for those who want an engine is be patient, and search several forums (hopefully local) constantly. Took me 4-6 months. Mak

I'm jealous! It's taken me longer with no luck.

ebay, superhonda, craigslist, carolinahondas (my local source), here, and honda-tech if you can swim through the crap that piles there daily were my best hitters for finding an engine. Call up your local motor/import/junkyard as well and they might find something. The VX chassis is light and VTEC-ready, aka GSR/LS-VTEC/Type R friendly, so the stock Z1 is a paperweight to most people in the Honda scene. Idiots Don't they know gas will never see <$2 again? Mak

craigslist FTW!!!!

lots of VX engines are being taken out and sold for cheap on there over here in the west coast

the VX perfect for any honda dragger, light wieght and already hooked up for vtec
so theres alot of d15z1's being taken out over here

I just heard about a d15z1 being taken to a metal recycler . The guy was like "oh I didn't know anybody would want that slow POS. sorry"
