hollowed out hollow cams????????????!!!!!!
and you wonder why people are calling B.S. on you.
I am sure you lost atleast 50 lbs from those cams alone.

you really dug yourself your own grave this time.

you are a B.S. master.... end!

car does look nice though--stock but nice.

Here... Found another shot:



and one more secret to weight reduction... Alloy rivets.

Looking good!

daniel, or mr cosgrove.. are you telling me you took your stock seats apart and fabbed new lighter alloy frames and lighter seat padding??

machined and replaced lay shafts in the tranny??

and bored the cams? does this mean make a hollow cam have thinner walls or what??

can you please answer each question. whatever was said between us is in the past but you have to admit these are some pretty bizarre claims

Dont question him. I'm in Southern Califorina, so his claims are true.

Like I said...

I may let everyone in on some stuff on weight reduction in an article...

Briefly though...

That full interior you see has been completely re-worked with lighter materials right down to the seat padding and frames...

Lighter Teflon insulated wiring, lighter alloy attaching hardware...

I've done things like replacing the counter-shaft and selector rods in the transmission with an alloy pieces and bored the camshafts...

Serious (capital serious) weight reduction...

I probably will have to revise the weight like I said earlier because the rear sub-frame was swapped back out to a stock one... it couldn't handle the daily driver pot holes and I was getting a little worried about it blowing apart...

The front carrier will probably have to go as well...

want to see article of weigh reduction as well as a complete list of parts replaced. i cant fathom 500lbs loss with the things you kept.

car looks good though

The devil is definately in the details....I to would like to see more info on your weight reduction.....I've done LOTS of research on this model, did lots of de-optioning and put into practice a bunch of stuff I've picked up trying to reduce weight on my camaro. I'm honestly running out of ideas......

I really want to see a thread that you contribute too about weight reduction so we can keep this out of here....Specifically I'm interested in the starter, alternator, stock aux fan/brkts, and rear seats....

Again killer car. Would be neat to plop a D/A charger onto it with a tiny pulley......That would be a damn quick 318

You already have my respect. I'm not trying to bash you in anyway. Just trying to wrap my head around the possibilty of that weight.

[DCColegrove]

me too. i'm far from being qualified to question mr. colegrove's concepts but i'd like to a) see a picture of the car on a scale set and b) hear more details.

nice car btw. with or without weight loss.

I'll weight it again and shoot an image... I'll guess that it's up to about 2100 or so with the stock rear SF

i really like the way this car is set up.

My BMW?...


...Or the old 510 GT2?

BTW... That particular 510 wound up in so many pieces...

...That they shipped some they found back a month latter via UPS
