MVVS58 /Evolution 58GX2 weight
I am looking for an all up weight on the MVVS/Evolution 58GX2.
Specs say that the motor is 4 pounds bare.
Has anyone put this power plant on a good scale with ignition?
Also, anyone know what this motor weighs with the can that Horizon is selling?

How about the weight of the pitts?

RE: MVVS58 /Evolution 58GX2 weight
Bore 42 mm Maximum power output ** 8.5 HP/6950 RpM
Stroke 42 mm Maximum torque **
Weight of complete engine without ignition* 1820 g Fuel Unleaded 95-octane fuel
Weight of ignition unit 165 g Lubrication Oil with petrol in mixture 1:40
RpM range 1000 – 7500 RpM
* Some manufacturers state the weight of incomplete engines. The value in the table above stands for the weight of a completely assembled engine, including the spark plug, carburetor, drive washer and prop screws.
** Power output varies with the exhaust used. The value given in the table stands for the maximum available power output.

Weight of ignition unit 165 g = 5.8oz
Total weight minus exhaust system is 4 pounds 6oz
ADD pitts Pits 165 + 330 Grams= 11.6oz
So with pits 165 power package is 5 pounds 2oz (Same as above)
Anyone know the weight of the can/header system that Horizon is selling?

Also, if anyone has one of these on the bench and a good scale please verify.
