Mine weighs 2820 with a 1/4 tank of gas without me in it. Most times Ill race with at least a half tank and me weighing in at 240 so at least around 3100 race weight. Ive got big'n littles, tubular kmember, etc... I could lighten it up some but I like the way it drives and aint too worried about it. Didnt really want tubular a arms, will probably go to coilovers in front before too long though. Rear seat might come out also even though it doesnt weigh much. Nobody rides back there anyways but kids may be in the very near future.

Don't forget he's also running in 4000 ft air. That is worth a good bit.

Depending on cam and intake (Vic Jr) he could probably pick up a good bit at the wheels to give it the oomph it needs to go 10s or better, even at his altitude.

Im probably going to stick with the truck intake for now. Have seen flow charts and dynographs with them compared to ls6 intakes and the difference isnt worth it to me. If I do anything for an intake it will be a carb style intake setup for injection. Cam I havent decided on yet. Ive got ls7 lifters, new head gaskets and head bolts sitting here waiting for this winter when I have heads milled and cam change.
