I am going to say 100 lbs removed just by what is laying on the ground. 125 is not chromoly.

We're not sure. We haven't weighed the car yet but we'll know soon!

UPDATE:


A Magnus V5 Dual Rail Intake Manifold for the Junk Box!

I believe the Kings Performance / Procco EVO just went 8.408 @ 170.1 mph this past weekend.

Yep! JunkBox has some catching up to do but nothing is unachievable

Looking forward to the first track day!
