Is this too much weight?
 
Ok so tomorrow I am going to pick up an engine 1.5 hour away, my friend insisted that 4 people, me 175lbs him 163lbs and 2 girlfriends combined at 240lbs roughly and my engine D16Z6 roughly 200 lbs go in my car, engine in the trunk and 4 people, I think thats a bit over kill for a honda dont you?

maybe not just the engine and 2 people. leave the girls at home and you and your friend plus whoever is selling you the engine can help you lift the engine into your car. 200 isn't that much for it to go in the trunk. plus if the girls decide to try and help you lift the engine and one of'em breaks a nail.lol no poontang that night :P :'(

The original plan was to take 2 cars and put a board in the back seat of my car for the engine, my trunk has nothing its sheet metal floor, i dont want it denting or scratching, honda metal is ---- and i'm 4 inches off the ground, with that kind of weight i'll ---- up my car.
