[QUOTE="Mr Jones 4.6, post: 513741, member: 9622"] I was wondering if anyone else has ever heard of this and how true they believe it really is. Rotating weight on the drive train when removed can be calculated as so: 1lb of Rotating Weight = 10lbs of dead weight If so then I have installed : FRPP Alum. DS (5lbs maybe) Smaller TQ Conv. (about 18lbs lighter) So that means that means if true then the car feels like it has had around 230lbs of dead weight removed. Ive also done alot more weight like Teksid block, removed braces, dog bone, and any little things (EGR, converters, etc.) Just wondering if anyone else has seen this or supported the theory. [/QUOTE]
