You need to get one of those hanging scales that people use to weigh Great White Sharks etc

I like the new Dipstick!!!! Is it just me or did they change the design of the oil pan? Also the top of the intake runners are square and the intake on the heads are oval..

I was pointing out the revised camshaft reluctors, and repositioned cam position sensor locations.
