Weight reduction
If i was to take out the windshield wipers and motor out of my car, how much weight could i save. anyone have any other suggestions for me for weight reduction? I have already pulled the smog and ac. Aluminum driveshaft, no 'dog bone' as they call it. lightweight race seats others i'm sure. I'm looking for something inexpensive, lightweight wheels are out of the question for now.

RE: Weight reduction
Aluminum Heads, aluminum D/S, ALum flywheel, race seats, fiberglass hood, fiberglass hatch/trunk
take off a/c, take off smog, take off powersteering and replace with manual rack... aluminum wheels all fiberglass body panels, tubular suspension! skinnies upfront... take out jack and spare. don't drive a convertible
there is this window thing, replaces the glass with like a special plastic, saves a butt load of weight...
go on a diet... and take a **** before you race
