What would a SEVERELY lightened say 55-57 or 67-72 pickup weigh compared a Chevelle or something of the full frame variety? And would the Aerodynamics of the truck hurt it badly enough to make it just pointless even with some body mods if need be? i remember them saying at 220mph Big Red(Awesome Car) was pushing so much air through the grill it was starting to hurt it speed wise and if they had chucked the body for a later 90's F-Body it would have picked up 30 or so mph

What times are the duramax running? is that willow springs?
