These numbers are reasonably consistent with John’s weight of 304# for the 13B when you take off the roughly 90# for the additional rotor and the heavy center housing of the 20B; and a couple of other things he didn’t include.

Al,
 The published weight (dry) for the IO-540 is between 415-450 pounds on the Lycoming web site. Depending on equipment starter etc. Most installed weights for the 6 cyl run at least 460#. I would also like to see an honest weight including baffling etc for one.
