Wouldn't it be better on the driver's side since the driver's side lifts more? Also, what side is the spare tire on the Vega? I know the Monzas are on the passenger side. I'd think you'd want more weight on the driver's side (yes, I know you have the weight of the driver there).gt350fme wrote:I am considering installing my battery where the rear passenger side seat was, since mine is to be a 2 seater now, that would keep the rear area free for spare tire and some cargo space.
You could modify your spare tire hole to make room for the battery, or?, many h-body's have rear installed battery's, helps with weight bias for sure, but takes up space.
Closer to 250-300 lbs. The Vega 140 cu. in. long block weighs 285 lbs. Aluminum engine parts helps reduce that weight difference, though.gt350fme wrote:...my SBC 350 will add roughly 150 lbs to deal with up front
With a V-8? If you add a bunch of lead in the hatch area, it would be achievable. Way too much weight on the front-end. You might be able to do it by cutting off the font unibody forward of the firewall and adding a tube chassis. Fiberglass front-end and an aluminum block would help, too.gt350fme wrote:I too am trying to get that 50/50 weight bias...
