Stock weight with the FE was 3537 lbs. AL radiator, block, intake and water pump put my motor at the SB weight of 3200 lbs or less. Then I have to add back some weight for the full frame chassis.

Long story short. I'll know when I weigh it. :willy:

That doesn't sound too bad at all actually. You doing a cage? Full?

Yes. The new chassis intrudes into the stock floor behind the front seats in the passenger foot well. Phil and the boys are adding a tie in point for the main hoop on the chassis at that point.

I haven't decided wether I'm doing a full cage or just a 4 point.

Man with that kind of power and chassis I'd go full for sure. RS could do a sweet one you'd barely know is there. :unibrow:

Is Phil Mandella building your car?

No. The Roadster shop is doing a chassis for me along with minitubbing and some other fab work.

Blair Patrick is doing my motor.

I'm the PM, parts chaser and assembler. :willy:

Greg Weld is tasked with wheel choice. :wow:

Ok cool. Blair for sure knows his stuff

It's ligther than I thought. It really just comes down to home much extra stuff you can live without. :unibrow:

Congrats on the progress. The frame is looking sweet.:yes: :yes:

Awesome build even for the blue oval variety.:thumbsup:
