Hi Mark >From Jabiru http://www.jabiru.net.au/ 83.5 kg (178 lbs) complete including exhaust, carburettor, starter motor, alternator and ignition system Only thing missing is the 3.5 ltr of oil and the air box.
It's hard to beat the Jabiru weight, the price helps lighten your wallet as well (double the weight saving) Regards Barry Kruyssen k...@bigpond.com http://athertonairport.com.au/kr2/ -----Original Message----- I can tell you that my Corvair engine weighs right at 245 pounds complete, with everything it needs to run except fuel in the lines and electrons in the wires (that's carb, exhaust, airbox, generator, oil, etc), and on my first flight I tested the mount to 5 g's on the meter. I doubt the published weight for Continentals or Jabirus is absolutely "full-up", so keep that in mind when my 245 sounds heavy.
