It weighs more than the original engine did. Will it have more torque? Oh yeah.

Part of the problem of this project is that I CAN'T handle the motor by myself. It just plain weighs too much! Very difficult to move around with a dolly, prybars, or whatever. Most of the work I have done on the motor have been with it in pieces, just so I can handle it.
