wow, 100 lbs by removing all that stuff? That's pretty good I wanted to do that this year, but the $ is just not gonna be there for it, hell may not even get the k member done at the rate it's going

Just check on the ruling though, I saw another build that someone put a big 8 gal job in front of the drivers side of the car, and they had to build a frame around it. I don't want to see ya have a problem for something stupid.

On another note, what's the best 60 foot you've gotten so far with the car? another 100 lbs out plus the bars should help a good bit I'd think

it was about 100 pounds counting fuel.

figure it was a 10 gall cell, and i always ran it close to full so say 8 gallons atleast. so thats.about 50 pounds.

the lines with from front to back was 18 pounds

the big cell was 22 pound

the small cell was 7 empty

the lines and pump for the small cell was 13 pounds

so it was about 100 pounds. the only weight im putting back in is a 4 gallon cell and some very short lines. so im guessing once its all done i should have a true 50-60 pounds gone.

on my 8.9 pass i went a 1.34 or 1.36 60'

the next trip out i made a few suspention adjustments to try to keep the nose down and i went a 1.27 60' then the head came apart.
