Tig my 70 Mega Block Hemi Cuda with alum. heads, 4 speed, S60 dana full interior weighs #3800 without me in it. No cage but a heavy shaker. The Stage V manifold is super light and the billet wheels save a lot of weight too. Glad to see it's not just me....  Could you get by with one battery? And maybe even change the remaining batt to a lighter one? I just keep thinking I should really buy a rolling chassis that will end up light rather than mess with the Challenger. Having said that, next time its gets paint it might get a lot of glass parts

My old blown 72 weighed in at 3990, all steel and factory glass. Moly 10 point cage and Dana and back then I was probably 220ish.
