The E-bodies are not all that light as they weigh just about the same as a B-body if equipped the same.




I'm going to have to disagree with that statement.

It's been shown here that the E-body '71 Cuda's are extremely light. Lighter than most people think.

My A/C equipped '71 smallblock was 3,260 lbs.!! With 440/727 it was 3,440. NO lightening had been done and it had full interior/accessories and 1/4 tank of gas.

I'm guessing the GTX is 3,800 lbs. +

So I'm going to say there is AT LEAST a 3-400 lbs. difference which equates to 4/10 in the quarter or half a second.

My vote is for the 'Cuda.




I respectfully still have to disagree with you. I know of more then one 440 E-body weighing in over 3700 without the driver and a Hemi E-body can push 3800 to 3900 fully loaded. And I believe a 340 E-body with P/S and P/B's can push 3500. I believe an E-body equipped the same as the average B-body would weigh within 100 lbs of each other. Thats just what I have seen. And of course I mean with both cars being all stock. Ron
