Not sure, I'd guess 2650-2700-ish.

By now it's probably down to about 2550 since the seats are out and the block is stripped down to nothing at the moment , it'll lose a couple hundred more pounds in a few days when the engine and trans come out .

Damn it, I'm still bummed about that TII stuff

No thanks on those, I'm trying to concentrate on just getting another n/a engine right now. I don't have the budget to piece together a turbo engine setup at the moment. Thanks for offering them up though.

I'm working on a deal with a local guy that I hope works out, he's trying to sell his '90 n/a, but he says if it doesn't sell in a couple days he's going to keep the car but pull the engine and start on a TII swap. If that happens, he's going to sell me the n/a motor and transmission and an aftermarket clutch for $550 or $600 (can't remember which ) Then I'll have to put all my S4 sensors and injectors and stuff onto it so I can run it on my S4 ECU. I've been working on electronic activation for the 6pi and VDI using an electric air pump.

Either way I have plenty of stuff to keep me occupied in the meantime. I'm currently working on re-looming my emissions harness, then once the engine comes out the engine bay needs a hell of a scrub .
