Ok so the black ti/carbon stoker nypex came in at 631 wet full of fuel. The orange stroker nytro was 7 pounds more with molly/fiber tunnel. The orange sled also has stock a arms and stock skis versus CR arms and Powder Pros.
631 minus the following:
11.5 gallons of fuel
4 quarts of oil
1 gallon of coolant
have a new battery that is 8lbs lighter (lithium we are going to try)
could go with 162 track and save 15 lbs
a timbersled skid or ez ride would save another 10 lbs
lose the m10 jack alone would lose 6 lbs
Paul/CR design to integrate tank and tunnel would lose another 10-15 lbs
New WRP seat to match tank/tunnel would lose another 5 lbs
Puts you around 478ish in a stroker apex. If you did the same setup with a nytro engine it would come in at about 470ish dry. I personally would not want this track/skid setup but if your goal was the lightest nypex/tro then this could be done.
If you didn't do ti and went with just moly/fiber and did not "stroke" either engine or do anything other than stock engine with head shim I think you could pull it off for less than $30k with no labor of course. To have someone build it for you would no doubt increase the cost substantially. That is one aspect that I did not factor in either.
Anyways, it was fun weighing everything and we were actually surprised by some of the findings. Some things were lighter than expected and other things were heavier!
We went to an analog type scale because we found it to be more accurate than the digital for whatever reason. We double checked the scale against objects with predetermined weights.
