Hey George, what's your firewall forward ... err, aft weight with the
mazda transmission? Any adea how it compares to, say an o-320 all up?


Hi Dave, It must be very close to the Lycoming, as my airplane weighs
940 lbs empty, same as most O-320 powered canards. But no, I have not
yet weighed the motor separately. I might do so in the future, as I'd
like to repaint my motor mount with epoxy paint.

George, reliable information like that is exceptionally hard to come by.

If you go the trouble to weigh everything, please share it with us?
