Are we talking about a street car or a race car? My race car Regal weighs 3105lbs with a BBB motor and I could get it down another 100lbs if necessary.
Well it would be street and strip but if necessary I will keep it strip. I want 2 put a 464 ci BBB and try and go some 6.60's on motor. Can u give me some insight on my build up. .038 flattop wiesco pistons 5/16 total seal rings zero deck block TA408s Camshaft SP1 intake 1000 cfm Barry Grant carb Fully ported 430 big port heads with the stage 1 valve upgrade TH400 with reverse pattern and 4000 10" convertor 4.10 gear 2 holley blue fuel pumps one for nitrous ad the other one for fuel. 5 gallon fuel cell I want to go some 6.60's on horse and then put about 175 shot to it.
Thats with me not in the car and the 8 gallon fuel cell almost full. To reduce weight I run aluminum heads, mini starter, fiberglass front bumper with aluminum bumper braces, aluminum intake, A/C box removed, Vega steering box, aluminum radiator, one racing seat and no back seat, door side impact braces removed (about 14lbs each), manual windows, stock rear bumper with impact bracing removed and stock bumper braces (mounts) gutted, gas tank removed with a 8 gallon fuel cell instead and aluminum brake drums. I do have a 6 point roll bar which puts some weight back in the car. I also have a steel cowl hood which is heavy. The motor is a 462 and has run a 6.73 @ 101.90mph in the 1/8th mile.
What is your engine combo? I would love to go to the aluminum heads but my budget wont let me right now. It would cost me more than $4000 to do this.
My Regal is for sale under the Race cars for sale area. If you look there it outlines my engine combo. Talk to you later, I've got to get to the track.
