Don’t know about the SS, but my standard Highlander with a 7-cylinder radial came in at 841 lbs. total, 220 lb. engine.

Re: Aircraft weight....
I have seen 720# and up to almost 900 for the original SS.
My guess would be ... 825
What did you end up?

Re: Aircraft weight....
Came in at 864 with everything. Doors, 29” bushwheels, The rotax is a 914 with a custom light weight intercooler. Maybe 1 or two gallons of fuel.
Wish it was lighter but I like it!
