Default How much more weight transfer will I get?

I decided to take some weight off the front of the car this winter. I put in a tubular k-member for a traditional sbc. I deleted my front bumper support, headlights, head light motors, manual rack, and manual brake master cylinder with stock calipers and took out all the wiring harness. So i basically stripped the front, so how much higher do you think my front will rise if any? It pulled them about a ft before.

That's an open ended question full of variables.


Taking 20-50 pounds can make the difference with cars leaving wheels up or being on the bumper.

Yes, it will wheelie higher, but with the increased transfer you'll get you might want to start using travel limiters and see how limiting the front lift helps on the 60ft times.
