I found a bunch of weights glued to the inside of my wheels

Removing them should save me a couple of pounds of unsprung weight

Those are not weights. It's a guberment tracking device. Make sure to check all your wheels, sometimes the put them all over

This was the easiest 30lbs I’ve lost on the car yet. Starts the hateful bitch right up

^^^ Any modification required to use it in the stock location?
Also is it good for a car with a system? My baby still needs to lose the weight of an added sub system (52 lbs)

I have one in the stock location. Got if from CJ Motorsports. The stock hold down will hold it as is. Phunk is supposed to make me one that fits perfect.

Sorry to revive an old thread but does anyone know how much weight I could save out of curiosity going with lightweight pistons, rods and billet crank if any?
