Seems unlikely it can be pumped up THAT much - the 31 hp B&S I find on
the web is 125 lbs. The 60 lb engine is only 9 hp. But I'll look at
them.

Have you considered a motorcycle engine? A modern 600cc liquid cooled
engine puts out around 90 peek BHP and probably a 50 or 60 BHP for
sustained output. I don't remember what they weigh but I had a Honda
600cc engine a couple years ago and I was able to move it around without
much effort.
