[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 5927850, member: 11681"] Ditto Mine has been in the trunk(right rear) about a year now .... no problem. It is a much shorter run for the Fuel Pump Driver Module wire up grade too. If you are concerned about reliability use a very heavy gauge wire, and add a couple extra grounds to the engine. Factory battery is about 38 pounds. Larger radiators that hold more water weigh more. Larger H/Es that hold more water weigh more. 2.3 Whipples weigh more. My reasons for moving it are obvious. Bruce is correct as usual on the effect of reduced rotating mass as opposed to static weight. 04 Chrome OE wheels bare weigh 30 pounds. 95 Cobra R r58 wheels weigh about 23 1/2 pounds Track tires weigh less than street rubber too. When you change over to your track wheels and tires and pick them up one after the other............. the difference is DRAMATIC!! :beer: .. [/QUOTE]
