Difference in weight between nodular and aluminum centersections? I'm planning to do upgrade to 35 spline axles and a spool, and have been kicking around an aluminum center section. Anyone know the difference in weight?

cause I heard you could save 40lbs all together on the rear w/ alum. center / lt. wt. spool and a lt wt. housing but when I looked into it was more like 22lbs total.

KP says the Moser alum. centers are stronger than the Strange ones...
Then again I could gun drill the axles and save the weight that way. Either way I am looking to make stuff lighter but still handle 900+ hp at the crank.
