Does anyone have any accurate numbers for the firewall-forward package weights of various engine options? By firewall forward package weight I mean everything including the engine, mount, exhaust, full fluids, and any external oil/water tanks or coolers/radiators or PSRUs (when applicable), and a typical prop.
  • VW
  • Subaru
  • Suzuki
  • Lycoming (various 4-cylinder models)
  • Continental (various 4-cylinder models)
  • Rotax 912/914
If not a table of data, then a few examples of actual, measured engine dry weight vs. total firewall-forward package weight would help a lot.
