Is this pic with no weight in the front? She's gonna be in the weeds if it is when you add motor, tranny and rest of the goodies

 

Harold, give me a buzz or stop by some time.

Tim the K's run new around $239, you can usually pick up a priviously loved one for less. There is still more weight lose if you go w/ coilover and tubular arms.

Tommy, the engine and tranny are back in, in that pic

 

Ahhh...sits nice then! I was thinking this was unloaded

 

you can save more weight too with a manual rack and pinion and lose some parasitic loss on the engine. May not be something to look into for corner carving but extra weight off the front for drag racing would be cool too. Now with some aluminum heads, relocate the battery to the back and a fiberglass hood. That could be another 100 lbs or so I would imagine. Sweet deal.

Red vert, car is looking good with that k member on it.

 

^ thanks, there's also alot more to be had with tubular arms and coilover. I'm not sure if the twisty scenario will stay, so I haven't gotten into them yet.

I have the alum heads and am not worried too much about parasitic loss. The K's also give you the option of a 1" motor set back.

 

Some skinnies up front would unload some more weight..

 

Also some issues I have heard about the K's are though that chrome moly is brittle and not suited to a street car very well. If its a DD mild steel is better from what I understand.

 

wouldn't be conducive to my masterplan, which I seem to be sticking by this time around

 

Liar

 

um.... 15x4=60lb's not 100lbs

i think you ment 25 each lol jk

i wish i had the mula's to do that right now! my stang is engine/tranny-less too for the rest of the week lol.
i just repainted the whole engine bay today! man your capri is going to be super nice!!
