Weighed my 93lx hatch on scales 3060 cat scal 1260 rear 1800 front and that with ac compressor and spare tire and jack full interior manual
If your worried about traction loss from swapping in a fiberglass hatch why not take the hatch off the car and test the traction at the track. This way if it hooks you know a fiberglass lexon combo would definitely work.
Can't wait to see the 'weight loss journey', definitely something I am very interested in seeing, going be cool!
Coming soon!
Tussins tips for weight loss. 😁
He does have some decent weight loss stuff.
Yeah he does, no safety is lite
My Capri had SN95 brakes on it, and the spindle, rotor, caliper were 44lbs each side, now I have new edge spindles with aerospace technologies 10.65" 2 piece rotors and 4 piston calipers, and they are 30lbs each side. I made a lower rad core support from chromoly and it saved 6lbs, I cut up the factory metal bumper rebar and lost 11lbs there. I have tubular k member and control arms. and a manual steering rack which weigh a total of 58lbs, vs the stock k member, control arms and power steering rack that weighed 104lbs. My 15x3.5" weld wheels with mickey thompson front runners weigh 22lbs per side, vs my Stern 17x9 with a 255/40r17 witch are a hair under 50lbs per side. My factory Capri RS hood is 45lbs, I have a pin on hood that is 16lbs. my Kirkey seat and mount is 24lbs compared to a powered sn95 cobra seat with is damn near 50lbs. Then next thing I am going to do is grab an Anti Gravity battery, The weight for the size I am going to use is under 10 lbs and the battery I currently run is 44lbs. I am waffling on doing a tubular front end. I am not certain I want to go that far yet. I like having fender liners.
nice! heading in the right direction!
That's the plan!
That ol man looks like he can handle a couple folks at once!
Lol
This is a principle I learned from my father back in 1971. We would build V8PINTO at one point we had a curb weight of 2175 pounds 5.0 4 speed top loader 9inch 31 spline rear-end. Power to weight is hard to beat and a alot less breakage. Many being repurposed from other ford cars the mustang early 70s late 68 good fun.
8's or bust!! Looking forward to following the journey.
Ty !
@@Neomustangs Ty for all you share
91 Lx notch SSP all steel AC power everything 3038lbs 100% all factory everything. Weighed on long acre racecar scales
Cool
Great channel Neo. I like the way you build your mustangs.
Dry ice remove all the factory sound deadener, front and rear bumper bars, arm rest console delete, 8.8 dog bone weight, quad shocks and brackets, race steering wheel and seat....all of the low hanging fruit that cuts the weight beyond that it gets spendy to do carbon
Thx for info
My 86 gt vert weighed 3220 on certified scales pretty much stock (1/4 tank of gas). 87 and up gt verts add 30 pounds for ground effects
Hey man hows it going!
@@Neomustangs good. Looking forward to foxtoberfest! Hope all is well on your end.
Looking forward to this myself. My Vortech supercharged 87GT has all of it's interior,etc.
i am certainly ready to see this rear brace set up i have been trying to find one for mine
Appreciate this video... You definitely set a good example for the Foxbody Community... Appreciate you Brother!
Check your email when you get a chance. 👊🏾
Thx man! I’ll check it out
I was getting mad my turbo, afr headed ranger was 3090. I guess it's not as heavy as I thought. Cool data sir.
Ty
I wouldn’t recommend a fibreglass hatch. I fitted a Cervini and it doesn’t weigh much less than the steel one because it is so thick to keep the strength. You would save more weight by taking the glass out and putting a Lexan piece in. I’m taking mine off and going back to steel.
That was my second idea with the hatch glass only. I know these hatch’s aren’t heavy at all no glass
A good idea might be “race weight” fiberglass hoods or fenders. Take the weight off the nose for more traction
@@Diamondsintherubble We plan on doing a handful of things in the front/mid. Ill gain quite a bit from brakes/wheels and seats alone. Still want a full factory style looking car... just under 3k weight somewhere
@@Neomustangs those old pro stock pinto with a Cleveland and a cage were 2,100 lbs
@@Neomustangs hood, fenders, and doors. Preferably doors that bolt back together like stock and a hood that just needs pins on the end. Do the foxbody’s have a striker latch on the hood or just an open hole like the new edge cars?
Nice! I am interested in seeing that crash bar installed as I have been considering buying one or adapting the new edge style to my 89.
I was just thinking about doing this when I bring my 4 banger notch home. Lol
Nice!
I weighed mines at the truck stop Quick Trip near my place. 1993 Coupe.
Full interior and cage= 3100lbs
Not bad
im likeing the content and the route your going with the White Car! good stuff keep the videos coming 👍🏻
Thanks! Will do!
Look into the tbm brake stuff
Bud it going cool to see what kind of weight shedding you will do and how much of a difference it will be on
the different changes.
Tubular core support would take about 15lbs off the nose
I want to hit that like, but it's at 69. I can't be that guy...
Okay, like 71 here. Whew, that was close.
Dan, I'd like to see how much those big block cars weigh. Although it's apples to oranges if it's gutted.
My notch full interior street car weight is 2900 by itself and 3120 with me in it. Does that seem about right from what you seen?
What about a tubular front end since the core support is damaged?
Just the rad support yes. Not going to cut the aprons out
looking forward to the strange brake upgrade!
Yep next level stuff!
Crazy… my stock interior ‘97 mustang with the 460 weighs 3200 with my 200lb ass in it.
Yo neo what aftermarket block do you have in the black car
Boss
Nice video Neo! Have you ever used scat 331 or 347 stroker kits?
Nah
I have eagle wich is same chinese crap, been together 22yrs
Are you coming to Lmr cruise in October?
No
@@Neomustangs man that sucks was hoping to meet you!
My Foxbody powered 65 is overweight and OLD ASF.. needs a diet for sure
Mines probably fat as hell!lok
Looking forward for weight loss program on the white car, if I get back into drag racing I'ma gonna have to go on a program, the car and I. Lol
Got my 85 GT down to 2470 without me in it. Over half a tank of gas. Iron 3 bar heads, stock hatch and brakes so still some weight to take out. No ac/ps.
