Here's some eye candy:
Stock carpet ready to be pulled:
Pulled the gauges to delete the idiot lights:
Letting the new carpet breathe, it does still have some padding under it, but it is a little louder then stock:
Found under the stock carpet.....winning!!!
Lightweight battery getting its first charge:
Simple aluminum flat bar hold down:

Shipping weight was like 17lbs, optima is 40/45 I guess. So pretty substantial, plus NO added cable weight from relocating to the rear.

If anything the radiator is slightly heavier (tad) and holds a little more liquid. The stock one with the plastic side tanks is super light. As far as the battery I believe I got it from summit, no sweat they sponsor here regardless. I will see if I can get you a link to it.

You're really going to town on that car man wow. Ever think you will pull the a/c?
After I pulled mine the nose lifted more.
That battery looks like the way to go its $20 cheaper than the Odyssey. I just have to take a look and figure how I want to mount it. Looks like they have brackets for those batteries. Who knows how well they would work though and the $ is kinda steep!

Anywho...your 10.XX looks VERY promising with a little better air and the new mods
Also, even with the added weight of the cables, moving the battery to the rear is said to be equal to moving the motor back 2" (I think it was...maybe 3" ?)
