Good day!
I don't want to sound clever, but the 150lbs weight savings will not affect your daily driving, unless you do some serious racing.
I love weight savings as much as the next guy - probably more (1950lbs in the 90s with a 496cui alu Chev), but the cost doesn't justify it.
There is one bonus: Aluminium cools better.
Also, you would be surprised where you can save 150lbs on your car. Start with rotating parts which give you a higher "return of weight savings" and then reduce your unsprung weight.
Thirdly: how much do you weigh ;-)
