Anybody have an idea of the approximate weight of a 230 head with camshaft?

Thanks

As per the parts list: 11,28 or 11,30kg (depending on part number).

That's lighter than I would have thought. 25 pounds in the US system.

Thanks!

Sorry! I overlooked the camshaft...

Camshaft is 4,615 kg, a pedestal set 1,350kg.

Thanks Pawel! That is about 38 pounds. Still not too bad. Anything over 50 pounds gets to be very expensive to ship in the US. I could bring up another topic about shipping costs to Europe from the US, but I won't won't.
