  • weight distribution of a f-body?

    does anyone know the ballpark figures of our body weight distribution ratio? (ie: miata is 50/50)

    Hard to pin down a number.... in various magazine road tests that I have accumulated over the years, the LS1 cars show up as 54 Front/46 rear, or 55 F/ 45 R. The LT1 cars, with a heavier engine are shown as anywhere from 53 F/ 47 R to 58 F / 42 R.

    Not sure how accurate the magazine articles are, or how they took the measurements (e.g. - with or without driver, how much fuel, etc.).
