Hi,
  
        My empty weight for the 235/320 combo with the wooden prop and other 
mods was 931 Lbs. The MT prop (hyd) only added 5.6 lbs to the total weight. 
I have a minimum interior (small cushions and only paint in other areas) 
which probably accounts for some of the extra noise level.  I used peel 
ply everywhere to keep the excess epoxy at minimum during construction.
         
        Having an 'overbuilt' main spar (as Martha says) is a GOOD thing!
