I am doing some comparison of installed engine weight between our rotary and
most comparable Lycoming and TCM products.  I have data proving that the
"basic dry engine weight" they publish on their website is way off the
reality (I have 5 data points so far, they are 7 to 40 lb off, average 25).
Would someone have REAL engine weights (with exactly what accessories are
included) for Lycoming IO-360, TIO-360, IO-540, TIO-540 and TCM IO-360,
TSI-360-KB, IO-550, TSIO-550?  Or do you know where it can be easily found?

That would be a great help.

Francois,

This may be a trivial response, but could you get measured weights from someone like Global Aircraft in Alberta?http://www.globalparts.com/contact_us.htm
