I think I probably mis-stated the question...I'm good with the math to
get the arm...the chart of the acceptable envelope is listed as a cross
of weight and moment...wondering if there is any way I could get a CG
chart...

The POH has weight and balance data that you would expect, except that
it focuses on moment only, gives no arm figure. Usually no big deal.
BUT, we recently bought a 396 and it will do the weight and balance
data for you if you enter the arm data to return a CG and determine if
it is inside the weight restrictions and inside the envelope.

Does anyone know where I can find full weight and balance data on this
airplane?

To get the arm, just divide moment by the weight.
