That’s about as useful as opening a fortune cookie and reading it off as an answer.

In the first table they list 2307-2374 kg of fuel for takeoff and climb.

You’re talking to the wrong horse though.

Isn’t a 737-8 the max 8 variant? It uses newer dual CFM LEAP-1B engines. How does it compare? I can’t really find the data. The spec you’re referring to is for the older 737-800.

It suggests an overall savings of ~14% over the 737-800 but doesn’t look at specific takeoff/climb comparison.

I wasn’t posting the LLM output as a source of truth. I was just using it to question the uncited value. And I still really don’t know the answer. If you’ve got another data source I’d love to get it.
