→Super Heavy booster: I think we may be misunderstanding each other slightly, if 'each' engine and mounting weighs 66 tons that would mean the combined weight of 'all' engines and mountings would be 2178 tons. Thats 10 times the dry mass of the whole system. Whereas all the engines and mountings 'together' weighing 66 tons is consistent with the dry mass and the source's 'two tons of engine mass' times 33 engines
