How much will taking 100 pounds off of the front affect my launch? Will it be noticeable, I like the way it leaves now. Tell me what you guys think that launch up in the air.
If you could get you Pontiac to leave like the Coronet in the other lane you would have something!!!

Nice car,,,,looks great.........love the pics of your car. and that wheel stand is with a 1.42 60' on Caltracs.... NICE......... I have had a best of 1.40,,and a typical of 1.43,,,but NO wheelstands like that. ... I think the front on mine is a bit "tight" still....... Congrats........ K frame work...... 1.40 60' launch,,,,,,not much air

Well I ordered the VFN fiberglass bumpers and hood. Hopefully that will take off 100 or so pounds. Maybe I can run less fuel in the tank combined with a lighter rear bumper to offset the front weight loss.

Nice looking car & k frame. I wish my car was that clean underneath!You might try the CAP dynamic strut bars and Calvert 90/10's. They make the front end a LOT looser
