I wish mine still had the factory motor. It made more power.

No it doesn't make me want to keep the eaton on longer at all. I can't believe I held out this long. Records are meant to be broken and I can't think of a better person to break it. I will be at the track a couple more times before the KB goes on though.

I need to find 180lbs to remove is what I need to do to get to your weight!!!!

still not sure where 100 of it is....80 in the block....and everything else is almost the same i think. hell I have no door bars and no bumpers too!!!

Im sure youll go faster in the next few weeks...which is ok...gives me something to work on...especially if I cant scrape up cash this off season for blower/turbo

I don't have a front bumper, but still have the rear and the door bracing. I think you have a little more cage than me too.

Are you thinking about a twin kit or a single if you go turbo?

Im thinking single for weight, less complex and price. There are alot of twins out there now making some pretty big numbers but its another $4k and Im sure thw weight is significant. Plus what am I gonna do with 900rwhp?? I seriously doubt in the next 5 years Im going to make that car legal for 8s. Hell I dont even know if I want to add the dash bars!!! but a single at 17psi is going to net me similar power to my n2o setup from what Ive seen thats a 9.9 pass all day long..maybe more who knows. I still want to keep it on the street too.

You guys make my weight reduction look silly.

Would you guys mind sharing the weight reduction knowledge with me please? I'd love to shed some more weight where I can afford to. :beer:
