How heavy you figure it is?

If it is aluminum block and heads, with a tiny flywheel it's still gotta weigh a bunch doesn't it?

I agree - those dudes yanked it off the ground like it weighed 50 pounds! I bet they can change tires without a jack.

Think how quick they could do one of those Chainsaw sculptures! Not sure what it would look like though.

That was way cool; but if you follow around the circle from the v-twin, to the V-6, to the V-8, there is something to the left of the V-8, that is blue, that another guy is working on. A Viper V-10 maybe? Can we say a four man Aluminum Torque V-12? No wait, a Turbine power tree desintegrator.

Chansaws on a boating thread. So who knows why it fits? There is actually a very strong connection here.
