    I'm very surprised that your rpu is 2900 lbs, I would have guess no more than 2500. My 34 Plymouth 2 door sedan is 3240 lbs. That's only 340 lbs more and I have a heavier roof (steel) and all steel fenders and running boards. Of course the Vette rear is probably lighter than your rear. But still.........

    ....yeah Brian, that sounds like a lot. My '32 3 window, glass body, turbo 400, 400 small block, 9" rear was 2450 on truck scales.... Hard to imagine your roadster p/u weighing 450 pounds MORE! Bill
