Not Ranked
Hi Dave,
ICC-003 weighed in at 1135kg and is heavier than the standard arrangement due primarily to the weight of the Boss 5.4L motor and trans (it's a truck motor after all) and the 9" rear diff assembly and 5 link system. The distribution was roughly worked out by placing jacks at the pivot centre of the vehicle which came in at 60/40 approx.
The bare chassis can be picked up by two people no problems, and we only add <20kg of aluminium panelling to the frame to finish the quasi monocoque look prior to installation of the drive line, wiring, brakes etc...
With the standard suspension arrangement and say a 5L Windsor engine and 5 speed manual the full weight of the vehicle is just on 1000kg total weight, with a weight distribution percentage of 52/48.
Thanks for your positive feedback mate.
Regards
Wil
