Default Bombbardier V220 vs Lycoming/Continental

Bombardier describes the V-220 as the "best power to weight ratio
in their class". Their web site lists the weight at 190 kg/419 pounds (see
http://www.vaircraftengine.com/en/te...Data_v-220.asp). I believe
but am not sure that weight includes all accessories.

What does a comparable engine with accessories weigh?

Also, the V220 gets 0.420 hp per pound of fuel. How does this compare
with Lycoming/Continental engines?

-Much Thanks
