Paul,

Under 200lbs for engine includes everything?


L D Mueller

Yes except the gear box. That will vary depending on power.
The Bell 47 GB used for the TTC is about 45 pounds.
My estimate for 300 HP GB is about 30 pounds. Tracy's were a bit heavy
at about 45 pounds.

Here is a picture less the dry sump system, turbo and intake man. It is about
110 pounds for the core engine.
