Hi

Would removing these parts do any harm or affect the car in any way, or are they over engineered dead weight?

Thanks for the info

I would leave the panhard rod alone. If your looking to cut some weight loose the A/C, EGR, and air pump. Get some headers and Y pipe with out cats, I would guess both of my headers weigh as much as 1 cast exhaust manifold. Also look in to a tube K member and remove the spare tire.

That's great, thanks alot for the help.

Good to hear I'll ditch some weight with the LT too.

I would guess I lost 100 pounds or so with every thing I just listed, the K member was good for alot of weight and it makes working on the cam much nicer. I can remove the oil pan if I have too as well with out lifting the engine.

Awesome build up

I'd LOVE to do the k member, but shipping would be a killer, my sways and watts are going to be bad enough lol!

Got a few plans for stripping some weight though, I can see 190 (ish) LB I could drop without getting too exstream

Oh, the crossmember's comming off!

I removed both from my personal car when I was daily driving it and it had no problems at all. Shouldn't hurt a thing!

Thanks!
