The wonders of the internet never cease.  Attached is a list of certified engine hp weight figures... if anyone is interested.  I got it off the Sea and Sky Aviation site.  The url for this page is:  http://home1.gte.net/ikvamar/avlinks/engines.htm#Engines2   No explanation is given of exactly what is included in the weight figure.

Engine Weights and Horsepower
The data for the certified engines came from Janes; the data on the auto-engine conversions came from the company selling the conversion. Some folks have reported different experiences, noteably certified engines that weigh more than the values given here. Dirk Rackley's detailed list of certified engines, for instance, gives different weights. His list follows this one.
For auto-engine buffs, you can get a nice list of car-engine weights at Dave Williams' Engine Weights FYI page.
