Hi Mike,
I've posted this before (twice already!)
This is what you can seemingly do with the type IV. Weight should be a little
over 200 lbs. My type IV without any manifolds, flywheel, starter, altenator,
ignition or carb weighs 145 lbs.

"I have been looking for more specific info for the type 4 at Great Plains
