Ranger vs Cont W-670, Weight

Fri Jan 24, 2014 12:35 pm

Can the wikipedia entries be right regarding these two?

It lists the Ranger L-440, C-2 (the 175 hp model) at 376 lbs. The W-670 at 992 lbs.

Seems unlikely.

It's closer to 400 pounds, depending on the version and installation.

And does the radial really weigh almost 1000 lbs?

That weight is probably for the tank engine with the fan and mount.
