Heffers need this mod diet, not a perfectly designed C6 that weighs what 3,200 lbs? This is a classic car, weight reduction only yields minor performance enhancements when it comes to the C6.
Weight reduction helps ALL vehicles (yes C6s included) when it comes to straight line performance, handling and braking, not just Mustangs and F-bodies.
Though I agree with not gutting such a beautiful machine unless it's absolutely necessary.
