Lighter drums for rear???

[Fast 383]

Where can I find lighter drums for my 7.5 rear. The ones I just pulled off are like 15-20 lbs a piece.

I believe the alum drums are discontinued, but I see them in the bone yards from time to time.

I wonder how much lighter they are?

[chevyracingrox]

doesn't have to be a big difference because it's unsprung weight and the spinning of the wheel gives it centripital acceleration. less weight, less centripital force. less force to push the car the same speed. it's the same physics behind a lighter flywheel on an engine. the engine has a quicker acceleration though, and more centripital force due to the accelleration of the crankshaft.

I was more concerned with the total weight. Possibly shedding 15-20 lbs?

There are some on Ebay.

Only $120 per set.

Happy Racing!

Fog lights are not driving lights. They look dorky. Turn em off slow pokes.

How bout those dorks too scared to drive without headlights on in the daytime!
