hit that shit up like project pat

but the auto is heavier than a manual by at least 140 pounds!!!!!!!

also fwiw, a t56 shipping wieght is 140lb.

468
-140
328

bill also wanted to argue that a 1uz is lightr because toyota is better at everything (thus the mkIII supra, also one of bills favorites) and the 1uz had to be lighter with its quad cam design, and aluminum everything, beacuse the ls1 is "big" 5.7 liter motor, with one cam, tiny heads with no parts in them, and plastic intake manifold and other bits and peices....even though he searched and found a 1uz longblock wieghs 390, yet its still lighter than a ls1....haha




i love you bill, but you will catch shit about this for a while.
