Only weight reduction if you can even call it that is !swaybar, !spare/jack, and prostars (mickey t dr's aint't light though)

Last time I weighed it was *before* the Ford 9", I'm not sure what the exact difference is between the 10 bolt and the 9" is.

Anyways, it used to be 3330lbs w/o driver..

With me in it, it tips the scales at 3500lbs plus the weight difference of the the Ford 9"

Thats very encouraging. Hardtop? I have took alot of weight out of mine but its a t-top car. Running the LE2 with a fresh shortblock thru an M6 and 10 bolt. Taking out quite a bit of weight though.

T-top car as well

After what I've seen through my big stall automatic and a Ford 9", there's no reason an M6 LE2 or 3 car shouldn't be solid into the 120's. None at all.

Thats what I'm hoping! I don't expect more than high 11s with the 10 bolt and the M6. But 118-120 traps are my goal


BTW who did the tuning?

I went 118mph with a bad opti in a full weight car with LE2 heads and a custom BRE cam that is smaller than the LE2 cam.
