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

I have seen 720# and up to almost 900 for the original SS.

My guess would be ... 825

What did you end up?

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! :D
