Hi folks. I can't seem to nail down the weight of this engine and I'm
suspect of published weights. For example Lycoming publishes the
weight of an 0-235 as 218 pounds and when I had one weighed it was 241
w/no alternator. Can anyone help me on a C-85? If you have a weight
pls tell me what is included in that. Or give me a link if you have a
reliable published report.
Thanks. Don....
