Haven't weighed it yet but its well stripped, calipers weigh less than a kilo each, rallye steels etc. still some weight to come out.
If I say 750 kilo it would have apx the ptw of a Ferrari enzo. Its pretty rapid. Was 318 last mapped, but got some new cams and forged rods so I can add a bit more ignition and boost. And no its not quicker than an enzo! Lol
