I just put mine on the scale, it is also the 2.5" 409SS and weighs in at 8lb 10oz.  There is another pound in mounting hardware and a 304SS exhaust tip.

 

I am doing it as much to make my plane "participant" friendly as anything.  I am also installing firewall and floor soundproofing as well as the rest of the side paneling.  I also have to turbo to mute my sound some, it was adequate for me but just not enough for the wife.

Ed, I just put mine on the kitchen scales, it is a 2 1/2" and it weighed 9 lbs.  It is the 409 SS like Tracy has.  The swivel ball weighed 8 ozs.  Good thing I only weigh 135.  JohnD

Hi Dave,

 

Any idea what they weigh?  Could find specs about everything but that - guess it doesn't matter on a earth bound vehicle.

I just ordered two hushpowerII mufflers to finally give ground crew a noise break (my own ears as well).
