Looking at putting a fiberglass w/lexan in our hatchback, but with the big block being front heavy I'm wondering if taking the weight off the rear is going to cause traction issues. The car 60ft times are really good now and I don't want to change that. What are your opinions?

we took the 12 gal cell out of the rear and put a 3 up front, even at that I think I'm going to have to but weight bars in the back..............and this is a smallblock car.

I'd leave it be.

I think it would be something you'd just have to try. My brother has a smallblock car and when he took the crash bar out of the back bumper and lost 35lbs. he ended up puttin it back in, cuz the car wouldnt hook anymore....

I think I will spend the money on a lexan windshield and side windows. To much money just to try.
