Default how much does a C4 hood weigh?
can't say I've ever ran across this, but does anyone know what a C4 hood weighs - less headlight assemblies? somewhere down the road, i'll need to pull the hood on my 85 i would like to have some idea of how many extra hands I'm going to need.

Post #1 this "sticky" I'd say answers your question and the "SOURCE" is quite reliable. Some information in that thread might be questionable but I doubt anything posted by the "USER ID" mentioned needs questioned.
