Assuming gas has the same specific gravity as water, that would be 391 lbs less the fuel.

Density of gasoline is significantly less than that of water.

Not to mention you'd also have to include pesky things like oil and coolant.

I believe water is around 8 lbs/gal and gasoline is closer to 5-6 lbs/gal.

Wet weight should be fully loaded less the fuel.
