I seriously doubt anyone could build a Carbon Cub with electrics at less than 900 pounds, and most are going to be more like 1000 I'd bet.
I don't think that's correct. A couple of guys I know with Carbon Cubs that weigh 1000# have long range tanks and 31" Bushwheels. Those two items add about 100#. They also have some other nice additions that could be left out. A 900# Carbon Cub is definitely realistic. A careful builder could do a well appointed Carbon Cub on 29" Airstreaks at under 900#, at least that's what my research is indicating.
Lowrider, have you asked CC if they'll sell you their CC340 engine?
