How Much Does It Weigh?

[alloy6ix]

Do you have a shaker 1000 stereo system?

Or a midget hiding in the trunk??

LOL or an overweight trunk monkey? You gotta watch how much junk food you feed those buggers since they don't get much excercise.

im trying to figure out how to lose weight in my car without breaking the bank here . This is what i got so far.

starting weight: 4052lbs w/ driver and 3/4 tank fuel
3812 w/o driver

Im having a hard time believing your car weighs that much. how accurate was the scale used? I would try a second scale to confirm. Do you have an iron block? Your car weighs 300lbs more than mine and I have the Cervinis kit, KB SC and 20" rims. The car weighed in at 3540 with a full tank of gas. I know your car has more mods than mine. How could it weigh almost 300lbs.

extremely easy lol. mild steel cage, BMR Subframe connectors, 9" rear end, 6060 is a larger transmission than the 3650. list goes on ha

and no on the skater 1000 i wouldnt pay 1300 for a factory radio

hmmm, I guess the midget was hiding under the car.. lol. Yup, that explains a lot in the discrepancy of weight.

I've wondered the same thing, and I'm sure someone has to have done it, but I don't know if it would be legal in certain racing classes i.e. real street, super stang..

 

[94tbird]

how much heavier is the TR6060?

 

[94tbird]

how much heavier is the TR6060?

I dont know but an extra gear, larger case and its longer so its gotta weigh more lol

starting weight: 3812 w/o driver

Start racing on half a tank of gas -25lbs
Replace trunk tank with small engine bay one and remove rubber lines, smaller pump -48lbs
swap Optima D34/78 Braile b14115 -33lbs
remove the rear seat, belts, hardware and bolts -31lbs
Trunk Trim -5lbs
Cut out spare tire well -20lbs (guestimate as it is steel and after its sealed with a sheet of aluminum)
Evap matarial under trunk - 18lbs
Corbeau Seats - 68lbs
Raceline Wheels (if they fit) -128lbs

376lbs total weight loss
end weight 3446lbs

Additions
rear seat delete - 9lbs


now my thoughts are to also remove the fuel tank and possibly put in a fuel cell but i know nothing about this. Are there tanks that will go in the same place as the stocker so I can reuse my pumps or do i have to do a trunk mounted one? If i do a trunk mounted one can I reuse my existing pumps or do i have to convert somehow?

3650 listed at 120lbs off tremec's site
6060 seems to be 135 from what I could find.
