weight savings w/ altercation

During my conversation today with HemiDenny in regards to this kind of setup with coil overs etc on both his set-up and RMS Alterkation, he said it isn't about weight saving as much as adding space and the fact that you gain space from that set-up doesn't necessarily mean it corners any better than what we already have with a modified stock set-up using the correct sway bars, shocks, disc brakes and tires. BTW, HemoDenny and I have the same books from years back which show how to make an early A body handle well.
