Don, thanks for the reply. My 360 came in at 290 pounds with mags and exhaust. For accuracy with my big fish scale, my team, (two guys, two girls), after a couple beers drove up to the hospital (1/2 mile away) and weighed ourselves on their (so called) accurate scale. We had lots of fun hanging from the fish scale and decided that it was pretty close. On Mon, Jul 15, 2019 at 3:12 PM DON JONES djonesdnd@... [canard-aviators] <canard-aviators@...> wrote:
Sure Bob, I was simply wondering how much lighter my engine would be had I
specked my build with a hollow crank. When I first posted my question I
had just weighed my engine, ready to run. For some reason I can't remember,
I had it in my head that the lightest IO-360 would be something like 250 to
260 lbs. So, I was very disappointed seeing as how mine is equipped with a
B&C lightweight starter and Alternator along with a Superior Cold Air
intake system which also is lighter than the standard updraft Sump/intake
system.. And, I have electronic ignition and fuel injection, again lighter
than mags. My all up weight came in at 286 lbs which turns out to be right
on the mark for Lycoming's published lowest 360 weight. Today, I was able
to verify the accuracy of the hanging scales I used, it is within 1 lb
correct. I'm still waiting on a reply from Lycoming. I will stop by the
Lycoming Tent at Oshkosh and pose the question to their staff and report
back.

Hey Don, I'm very curious as to why you would want to know about the
weight difference. Feel like sharing? Thanks, Bob.

Tom, thanks for the link, but I still don't find any indication of the
weight difference between a solid and hollow crank.. I turned to the
collective knowledge of our group only after a considerable length of time
researching my question on the web. I even emailed Lycoming with the
question, no reply as yet. Pilotfriend has loads of useful info but doesn't
seem to list the answer to my question. Please point it out, thanks. Don

*Lycoming 0-360 series engines*
*VERSIONS*
There are no less than 86 different versions of Lycoming’s highly
successful 0-360-series four cylinder engines. Of these, 27 are carburetted
models of 180hp; there are seven low compression carburetted versions of
168 hp; one fuel injected model of 177hp, 10 fuel injected versions of the
180 hp engine; 22 fuel injected models of 200 hp, including five aerobatic
versions; three turbocharged models of 200 hp, and 16 helicopter
configurations with ratings of 180, 190, 205, 225 and 230 hp. The list of
current production aircraft powered with these engines is too long to
include here.
*CONFIGURATION*
The 0-360s evolved from the 0-235 and 0-320 engines and are similar in
basic design and layout. The cylinders are made with two major components,
head and barrel, screwed and shrunk together. The heads are made from an
aluminium alloy casting with a machined combustion chamber. Rocker shaft
bearing supports are cast integral with the head along with housings to
form the rocker boxes.
A convention type camshaft is located above and parallel to the
crankshaft. The camshaft actuates hydraulic tappets, which operate the
valves through pushrods and valve rockers. The valve rockers are supported
on fully floating steel shafts. The valve springs bear against hardened
steel seats and are retained on the valve stems by means of split keys.
The crankcase assembly consists of two reinforced aluminium alloy
castings, fastened together at the crankshaft centreline in the vertical
plane. The mating surfaces of the two castings are joined without a gasket
and the main bearing bores are machined for use of precision main bearing
inserts.
The crankshaft is made from a chrome nickel molybdenum steel forging. All
bearing journal surfaces are nitrided.
The connecting rods are made in the form of H sections from alloy steel
forgings. They have replaceable bearing inserts in the crankshaft ends and
bronze bushings in the piston ends. The bearing caps on the crankshaft ends
are retained by two bolts and nuts through each cap.
The pistons are machines from aluminium alloy. The piston pin is of the
fully-floating type with a soft alloy plug located at each end of the pin
to prevent scoring of the cylinder wall. Depending of the cylinder
assembly, pistons may be machined for either three or four rings, and may
employ half wedge or full wedge rings. Consult the latest revision of
Service Instruction #1037 for proper piston and ring combinations.
The oil sump contains an oil drain plug, oil suction screen, mounting pad
for carburettor or fuel injector, the intake riser and intake pipe
connections. Crankcase covers are employed on the fuel-injected aerobatic
engines (AI0-360's).
*INDUCTION SYSTEMS*
The 0-360 series engines are equipped with either a float type or pressure
type carburettor. Distribution of the fuel-air mixture to each cylinder is
obtained through the induction system which is integral with the oil sump.
The 10-360 and AIO-360 series engines are equipped with a Bendix RSA fuel
injector (except for the 10-360-BiA which has a Simmonds 530 fuel
injector). The fuel injection system schedules fuel flow in proportion to
air flow, and fuel vaporization takes place at the intake ports. On the
TIO-360 series, the turbocharger is mounted as an integral part of the
engine. Automatic waste gate control of the turbocharger provides constant
air density to the fuel injector inlet from sea level to critical altitude.
The float type carburettors used are the Marvel-Schebler MA-4-5 and IIA-6,
which are single barrel with manual mixture control, and the
Marvel-Schebler MA-4-5AA, also single barrel, but with automatic pressure
altitude mixture control. The -5AA carb does not have a manual mixture
control.
The Bendix-Stromberg PSH-5BD carburettor is pressure-operated, with a
single horizontal barrel, incorporating an airflow-operated power
enrichment valve and an automatic mixture control unit. It also has a
manual mixture control which works independently of, and in parallel with,
the automatic mixture control.
FUEL
All models of the 180hp 0-360s and IO-360s use 100/130 octane fuel. All
200hp IO-360s and AIO-360s use 100/130 octane fuel. The 168hp 0-360s are
supposed to use 80/87 octane fuel.
DRY WEIGHTS
Dry weight of the 0-360s, including carburettor, mags., ignition harness,
engine baffles, spark plugs, tach. drive, starter and generator or
alternator, ranges from 282lbs to 290 lbs, The IO-360s range in weight from
296lbs to 332 lbs., while the TI)-360 weights 386 lbs.
AI0-360s weigh 325lbs with accessories; are 30.8 ins in length, 20.76 ins
in height and 34.25 ins wide.
The 0-360s range in length from 29.56 ins to 30.70 ins; are 24.59 ins in
height and 33.37 ins wide.
The I0-360s range in length from 30.37 to 33.65 ins in length; from 20.47
to 22.47 ins in height and are 33.37 ins wide.

Thanks Tim, I suppose one could calculate the approximate weight

Ill guess Don, its a 2” bore IIRC, about 8” or so deep. So maybe 3 lbs?
Assuming its not also counter weighted and some of them have lightening
holes in the flange, so its hard to say. There is also the prop governor
and plumbing if its a complete engine comparison your looking at.

references stating only a small difference, but no actual figures. Also,
anyone know the weight of their 0-360 engine installations? Weighed my
0-360 yesterday and it came in at 286 lbs completed with starter and
alternator, and fuel injection. No baffling, no exhaust pipes, no crank
extension or prop.. Just wondering how that compares.
