Hey all, in order to run a GTechProRR test with my Avanti, to get a
baseline HP rating, I need to know the Gross Weight. I am guessing
its about 3450 pounds. It is a stripped base Avanti, no A/C, 3 spd
manual trans, and I have aluminum wheels. I think I read that a 64
Avanti with supercharger weighed in at 3600 pounds.
I am doing a 60-0 braking distance test with the Mustang GT brakes
before putting the Cobra brakes on probably next weekend.
Will be interesting to see what HP is has. Rated : 240. Real : 190?
Any input?
Tom
