Default Need weight of Saito 72 w/ muffler

I am putting together a Phoenix Sukhoi with a 4-cycle engine on the front. I already have a OS FS 70 Surpass and even with moving the rudder/elevator servos to the rear of the Fuse, it's gonna need more weight in the tail. Can anyone tell me the full weight of the Saito 72, with the muffler? The weight on Horizon's website appears to be without the header/muffler. I want to know whether it is worthwhile considering an engine change to cut down on overall weight.

Thanks,
Bill

Thanks! Makes sense, Horizon's weight is 470g (16.6 oz) w/o muffler. The 18.3 oz is about 2 oz less than the OS.
