Your weighing of the O-235 came much closer to my recollection than the
other figure, and I was curious about what else I might find, so I did
some
digging.


Peter, you are the man, that is exactly the info I was looking for.
Looks like the C-85 w/o baffles, exhaust or prop but including
lightweight starter and alternator, carb, fuel pump, air scoop &
filter, oil cooler, ignition and 5 quarts of oil will come in at 221
pounds. The 0-235 L2C that I had weighed had a starter and no oil and
weighed 241, with all the other components it would have been 269
pounds.

Thanks very much. Don

You're welcome.

Peter
