Francois,

their Lycoming IO-540K was 420 lbs.

Thanks Doug.  But Lycoming is listing the IO-540K at 438 lb on their website
and I doubt they would "cheat the wrong way".  So all comes back to the
question:  with what accessories included?  For example, if the starter
system is not included, it makes a big difference.
