also i got my dash put back in. finally i completed my ECU bracket. i been pretty busy so not much time is being spent on the car. although the plan is to have it running by the 1st.
I also now HAVE a set thanks to you haha

I do not know if this is stated in here at all. Do you know the weight of just the A/C stuff in the dash? I see the heater core is listed as 10 pounds, I want to know just the a/c in dash?

Thank you.

get a shipping scale. accurate to .01 is good. you can find them for under 150.00. i forget who makes mine but its .01 and up to 400lbs. they come with calibration weights and stuff.

your scale is great for pranks though. a long story short my G/F was doing a diet. she is 5,4 and weighed around 130lbs. she wanted to ''tone'' up and drop 10lbs. i did not like that idea at all. i feel she is perfect looking. so when she hit 125 on are bathroom scale basically i took it apart and rigged it up. it still started at 0 but when she would step on it it would read a good 20lbs more then she really was. she bought it for a good 3 weeks. hahahahah. then she figured it out. i didnt get any for a while. but it was worth it. she is still under 130 but not below 125. i think she is stronger then me now though with all the gym and fitness.
