It's a GM crate motor, I wish it was a stage motor.

Thanks for the reply's, I have gotten such a broad range of opinions. It should be interesting to see when I get her on the road. I definately agree with the rear suspension upgrades, no use in having a 500 hp engine if you cannot put it to the pavement. Also the goal is to have the car weigh in at between 2300-2400 lbs. I also wanted to lighten up all the reciprocating mass. Thanks, fellas

2300 LBS damn thats lean!!!!

On my green car in my sig i have the following done to it to get it to 3000 LBS-
i know i can still ditch the factory seats
100LBS
and front and rear steel bumpers
45LBS
Then glass the hood,fenders,doors,and decklid should take it down an additional 150LBS-250LBS i have no idea how heavy these doors are. that only puts mine in the 2600 -2700 range.


i have no Heat or AC, temp removed the dash to remove insulation and ducting and install the turbo harness.
there is no insulation under carpet,behind the headliner, doors, seats,plastic interior panels.
Aluminum drums, core support, cut down alum bumper supports, removed bumperettes from chrome bumpers.
Single shot axle dump exhaust.

Are you going to use a buick? LOL

Sorry that was a typo, the goal weight is to be between 3400-3200 lbs. that would be with a roll bar installed.
