the weight of a PA .51 with header muffler
« on: January 25, 2015, 05:05:27 AM »
I am about to build a GEO XL and as I dont have the PA engine specified on the plan I need to know what one weighs so that I can find a substitute of similar weight to manage the balance.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks Charlie

I don't have the header muffler, but if it helps my PA51 weighs 326 grams/11.5 ounces and the pipe header weighs 34 grams/1.2 ounces.


edit - I see Dave posted while I was out in the shop weighing mine  :)
