How much does gas weigh?
How much does gas weigh per gallon? (6.5 lbs per gallon correct?)
How about motor oil, per quart?

Gasoline fuel is roughly 6.35 lbs per gallon.
Motor oil is roughly 2 lbs per quart.
These numbers vary per grade and refinery.

A complete Kirkham (with aluminum FE) weighs 2200 lbs (plus oil and gas)

Choice of tires and any number of things come into play as well. Don't forget the weight of the coolant (water and anti freeze and what mix of each).

Your mileage may vary due to changes in gravity. Void where prohibited, plus any state in the USA.

Leaded or Un leaded?

Minus coolant, rear fluid, gas was unleaded, therefore, light gas (lead is heavy).
Okay, so the test weight was 2400lbs with all fluids and full 30 gallon tank. . .(about 27 gallons in it)
What does a FFR weigh "full"? They are the lightest I can think of. Are others that are as light as these?

I'd guess Kirkhams would be as light or (probably) lighter than an FFR. There are a few threads on the FFCobra forum about actual weights but they vary with motors, suspensions , add-ons like A/C etc. 2,300-2,500lbs seems pretty common with a couple reporting slightly under that but those were CF bodied and mainly track cars.

My FFR is 2270 with a 351W/Tremec, live axle, fluids. It's an older MKI model so it's a bit heavier( Lower front A-frames/ 4 shocks/coil springs) than the newer ones with similar drivetrain etc. My friend's FFR is 50 lbs lighter w/392 stroker.
