20lbs from a after maket hood

removing the ac should save 30-40lbs

aluminum driveshaft is 5-8lbs saved

yea my heads are ported E7's,gotta stock hood,still have a/c,everything still on the car except for the smog and an o/r H-pipe

thats good to hear.

but ive heard from 2 different ppl that the stock driveshaft is 22lb's, aftermarket are normally around 14lb.
