Paul,
   After polling the airsoob group, the answer for the weight of the
Subaru EA-81 longblock was 125 lbs.   As I recall the Mazda 13B
longblock weighs about 180 lbs ?  As you pointed out, everything else
like the PSRU, radiator, manifolds, exhaust, etc. would be equal !

My present Falcon Gyro will be completed with the Subaru, but once
completed, I would like to try building the first single seat Rotary
powered Gyro.  I can't let Gary Buster have all the fun !

George, love that Mazda Rotary, Moore

 
 
Will you attend Benson Days flyin George? Should be half a dozen rotary
powered gyro's there this year including Gary Buster's.
