my goat needs to go on a diet,any lightweight prts or anything that can be removed please list it here

 

I am down to 3630 #s with a half tank of gas so far. I have removed the skid plate, spare tire, lighter exhaust than stock (which is a beefy heavy bunch of pipe), lighter rims, and dry cell battery (saved 20#s). Still a rubenesque lady, but I am working on her Atkins diet...

 

what about the stock hood what does it weigh,i wonder if any of the fiberglass or cf ones are lighter?

 

3630 with or without driver? I'm assuming without. Not bad at all, good start

 

not bad at all i would like to get mine down to about 3700 with me in it

 

I did the trunk, also removed the skid plate completly, STB from BMR was 1 pound lighter (heh) lighter rims, lighter exhaust and next is the hood. Here are the numbers I got on the hood via email from pfyc.com

"A stock GTO hood weighs 42lbs, a fiberglass Banshee hood weighs 31lbs,
and a carbon fiber Banshee hood weighs 29lbs."

I'm going with the CF since my Goat is black so that is another 13 lbs! I order mine next week. I think the manifold might be lighter too but other than that it's just a heavy car that needs lots of HP, the torque is there though gobs of it.
