I wouldn't think so. The crank is light enough to use as a dumbbell
and that's heavier than the cylinder blocks. Just guessing of course,
but I'd say 180 lbs for 100HP which is better than an O-200.


The TCDS says the O-200-A is 190 lb. My experience with the engine
makes me wonder about the 100-hp claim. The C-90 I flew had more pull.
