Tom,

My car weighs 3060. I havent done a whole lot of lightening. The trany, converter and fluid probably weigh more than a trick aluminum 4 spd and flywheel.

I did use a sealed lead acid battery, alum driveshaft and lighter drums, but after spending the money there I found I needed to add 230 lbs in the trunk in order to go anywhere on polyglass.

As good as the car runs I think there is alot more someone could do if they were willing to spend the money. The duster is the result of a fairly low buck effort, with almost all the work done at home, things that I'm sure could be done better (like a set of pro ported heads). Also no roller cam.

I think someone could get well below 11.50. Thats another thing, I really dont want to put a roll bar in the car. Although I wouldnt mind having that dilema.

BTW thanks everyone for the compliments.
