3.0/6sp drivetrain component weight.? Curb weight?
Discussion
I did some searching on the web and on the PH forums-->Noble section. Didn't look a whole lot in the PH search results, because from some glancing it didn't seem like I was going to find the answer.
I am curious to know the full engine weight of the 3.0 Duratec with accessories (long block assembly with everything necessary for install) .... for the motor itself ... and or ... with the twin turbos/intercooler/intercooler piping Noble package. M400 or GT03R shouldn't make much of a difference.
I found one website that claimed the 3.0 Duratec to weigh about 360lbs fully loaded ... dry.
With so many inaccuracies on the web, I wondered of the legitimacy.
I have no idea how much the tranny or other drivetrain components that are separately ordered weigh.
I know some of you had to order the drivetrain separate from the chassis and you may know of the shipping weights or you may have know of component weight somehow.
My main focus is to know the engine weight, but knowing of the other component weight would be good too.
Please contribute.
I know the curb weight figures have been stated on these forums, and are stated to be around 2300-2350lbs by Noble ... BUT ... I figured if you were going to comment on the engine weight data ... then it would also be convenient to restate actual curb weight findings that may contradict typically thought of figures.
Thanks for the helpful input, in advance!

1675 was the shipping weight of the rolling chassis shipped from South Africa. Engine and drivetrain make up the rest.
Get to your bed man that's far too early in the morning to be replying. I thought I was the only sad person to be up this late drinking whisky after a club !
... I'm in the U.S. and it's only 8:30pm.Thanks Mike!
That's a good start to narrow things down ... but that still leaves ~700lbs to divide between drivetrain components.
I'd atleast like to know what the engine weighs in at ... and the diff/tranny etc are a "plus".
I'm guessing the engine weighs in the low 400s ... maybe even uper 300s. Like I stated before, one site quoted a dry weight 3.0 Duratec to be about 360lbs ... but I know this information may be quite inaccurate.
I know somebody must know these specs. I'll be patient, and I'll keep searching for the answers for myself.
Thanks again!

Bump. Still not finding anything other than the approximate engine weight.
If any of you ordered your drivetrain separately, please take the time to dig up the weight of the tranny/diff info for me ... because I would think it would be accessible from shipping.
I guess I could just call 1g racing ... just figured this could be a "quicky" online.
