~26 pounds

Just like the weight isn't comparable, the price isn't either though.

1800 bucks extra for a weight savings of 7 pounds.

257 dollars per pound. The weight is in a great spot for reduction

I'd be tempted to just try out the butcher crank. Stock is fine for me on strength and they get them down to like 26.5 pounds for $550. Back to EFRs though.

Off-topic. But has anyone even ran a butcher crank on a high hp build here?

For a street car i think that light would make launching and taking off from a stop a bit rough, no?
